Topic: Coarse lines upon print

Hello!

Recently, I've been printing with red ABS, and I got this coarse result as seen in the attached image.

I'm not exactly sure what is going on here. What do I have to do to fix it?

What is blurry photo supposed to be?

I am far more uncertain of what you're trying to show.

Can you let us know what it is that went wrong? I just see a build platform with some plastic crud stuck to it.

IS this after you removed a part? before you started printing? After a few minutes of printing?


Can you extrude correctly in the air? (manually extruding)

Looks like bad adhesion because the filament was not hot enough. Raise temperature for that filamment 5 degrees at a time to see if that helps.

Everything is all fixed. Turns out the thumb screw wasn't tightened enough.
