        <title>Gaps In Solid Fill</title>
        <description> I have a Printrbot LC + and have it dialed in really good. I can get very accurate, repeatable parts from it. But I have an issue with small gaps in the final fill layers.

I have it set up for three solid fills in the top layers but I&#039;m getting small gaps around the edge of things like internal details and the outside edge.

Attached is a picture of my test piece. It&#039;s is 30mm X 20mm. It is a very difficult part to print and makes a good test/trouble shooting part.

Any ideas?</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Kirkram, if your switching from printing PLA to ABS, you will propbalby have to recalibrate your extruder steps in your firware. From what I have read ABS feeds differently than PLA.<br />
<br />
Both of you might want to take a look at Triffid's calibration guide. The <a href="http://reprap.org/wiki/Triffid_Hunter%27s_Calibration_Guide#E_Steps_Fine_Tuning" target="_blank"  rel="nofollow">E Steps Fine Tuning section</a> is one I like.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ What did you change the settings to?  I'm experiencing a similar issue, that's got me stumped. Large parts fill in just fine.  It's only the small parts.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I changed the Filament Diameter setting and that took care of the gaps.  <br />
<br />
Also I've got some GT2 pulleys and belts on order which should resolve any backlash I'm experiencing.<br />
<br />
Thanks for the comments.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ You have some backlash, which is why the circles aren't round, and that's probably at least a contributing factor in the infill not nearing the edges.<br />
Check your pulleys and belts.]]></description>
