So am looking for some suggestions to try. I am printing on an Ender 3 with a MS direct drive setup.
I am using Amolen wood filament and switched the nozzle to a .8
I did test prints for everything I could think: retraction, speed, temperature, etc and picked the ones that looked the smoothest of each.
I did the PID tuning as well on the nozzle.
However, I have never printed with a nozzle this size. I tried with this filament and .4 and got non stop clogging. Some reading online lead me to think that maybe it needed to be larger since it seemed to flow so easily.
Well I got it flowing great but the tops or where the layers change look a litttle rough as you can see. I don’t know if this is something I missed in my settings or if this is due to the size of the nozzle and wanted to get some input.
The sidewalks are perfectly smooth - if that makes any difference.
That’s very interesting. I have always used Cura but will try downloading Prusa and activate that - then reprint this later.
Thanks for the link!
Cura has Arachne as well. You can read more here.
