Topic: 3 printing defects. How to solve?

Hello, guys! ))
Perhaps you can recommend how to solve these problems with my prints.
1) delaminated layers. This problem appeared at the beginning and still is actual. Usually it appears for big models. (pic:

2) external perimeters are not together.. tried many different detail, but usually this problem appears. Only way to solve this i've found is to rise flowrate.. but as you know it will affect holes end so on... (pic:  http://www.bildites.lv/images/sp2iu1vs19eku8yga41.jpg
and problem which appeared not so long time ago, perhaps the reason is XY or something like this calibration problem:
gaps next to borders..
all this is ABS.
With pla I have different problems, but lets talk about ABS at this moment.. smile

Re: 3 printing defects. How to solve?

1)  Use more perimeters or increase the extrusion temperature, but don't go much over 205 with the stock Solidoodle hot end.  Also, enclosing the printer can help.
2)  make sure your circles are good and check for uneven belt tension
