I posted in reprappers, as i've never reallly gone to any of these other sections, so i'll post it here.
So i'm printing out a rotating V12 engine for fun. Now that i need more accurate parts i now need to actually figure out how to make the first layers the same width as the rest.
What i mean is , i print a 10mm long 3mm wide conencting rod for the piston. The first approx 5 layers of the bottom of this rod is .3mm larger in diameter than the rest of the rod. It tapers to the right size after that.
What do i need to do to fix this? I am printing on tape with heated bed OFF.
All searches i do keep coming up with "extrusion width" are for ADHESION purposes, i'm not having any problems with adhesion.
