PETG weird edge issue (lemmy.ml)

Hey folks,

I was printing a frame with a fresh unopened roll of PETG. I haven't seen this type of thing before. I'm guessing it's because I tried a new (to me) cura setting to move the seam to the corner.

Besides this area, everything came out great.

Any tips on how to get PETG and corner seams to not do this? (Or is the issue unrelated?)

Try drying it. I have issues with wet filament all the time, even fresh out of the vacuum sealed wrapper. Another thing to try would be to slow it down to see if it goes away. The third thing would be to calibrate the flow and pressure advance (orca slicer has the functionality built in)
