Extruder Head Tipping Over Prints
March 13, 2016 09:24PM
Just as the title says. I recently put together a Folger Tech Prusa I3, and the prints keep getting tipped over before it finishes.
The only thing I have tried printing is a chess piece. I have tried to find a solution on my own with no success. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

increase the brim width in your slicing program at least 1 mm or try 2 as it helps

I am using ABS, printing on glass and using Slic3r.
I will try increasing the brim width, granted I can find that setting.

Are you putting anything on the glass? I can't get anything to stick on the bare glass.

I have been doing printing with abs and pla and have only printed onto glass, sometimes I may use support brim or raft though....
For abs I have my bed at 100c and for pla 75c
