Hey y’all, I managed to hack together a printer from scratch and I’m struggling to get it to print well. It’s a CoreXY system that’s being controlled by a Octopus 1.1. Dual z screws, the works.
I have it moving under it’s own power and all. It’s able to actually print, but the results are atrocious.
I’m just trying to diagnose what’s wrong here.
The bottom/first layer actually looks kinda good. It’s just completely shredding subsequent layers.
Any advice would be appreciated!
Have you verified that you can extrude filament with the extruder stationary and a decent height above your bed? While you’re at it, you might as well do e-steps.
Yep. I calibrated all the e-steps too. Not just the extruder, but the the movement e-steps as well.
