Hi Chngyian,
When you attach STLs please first slice with Output Options, Verbose Gcode turned on.
You may have to link them to Dropbox etc if they are over 514k.
I can view the segment details in my gcode debugger.

I looked at the STL file in Meshlab. Your printer is trying to do what the STL contains- Notice two corners in the base right near the grub screw hole- your print has two corners there, too. It looks like your printer may be overextruding a bit- did you use the correct filament diameter when you sliced? Have you calibrated the extruder?
The STL file came from Sketchup- that's why it had to be "fixed" by netfabb. Sketchup sucks and will almost always leave you with corners on your curves unless you take special pains to prevent it. It will almost always require "fixing" the STL because, well, it sucks. There's better CAD called DesignSpark Mechanical that is free and has a very similar user interface, but does much more and works much better for designing mechanical parts. You won't have to "fix" the STL files it produces.

; external perimeters extrusion width = 0.40mm ; perimeters extrusion width = 0.80mm ; infill extrusion width = 0.48mm ; solid infill extrusion width = 0.48mm ; top infill extrusion width = 0.48mm
