[attachment 60923 WIN_20150827_20_28_35_Pro.jpg]Hello, I recently tried printing some self locking carriages for my mini Kossel printer. When I printed it first it had a line that was a bit off. It is hard to describe, just look at the picture. Then I said "It's only a random error..." then I started printing that again and it was the same. I am a bit confused, I am printing from my PC which is pretty overkill for this task and I even closed every app so only Repetier Host was running. If anyone encountered this issue, please help. Specs : Mini Kossel, Ramps 1.4, A4988 drivers, Nema17 steppers, E3d V6 hotend, heated bed, black PLA. PS: My motherboard, steppers, stepper drivers, PSU are actively cooled. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,550856,550856#msg-550856 Sun, 06 Sep 2026 07:49:44 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,550856,551073#msg-551073 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,550856,551073#msg-551073 Shepard48 Printing Fri, 28 Aug 2015 06:58:51 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,550856,550987#msg-550987 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,550856,550987#msg-550987 Use a brim, although not needed.

Watch your printer if it starts to scratch across the part. That usually is the reason for skipping steps caused by overextrusion or raised edges.
