I was lucky to spend 4 beautiful years with a Creality Ender 3 v2 that I modded to the brim and never failed to deliver quality prints. I never had to adjust, calibrate or tweak anything regarding print quality.
I upgraded today to a Sovol SV-08 because despite its qualities, the Ender 3 is too small and slow for my current needs.
However, the print quality is definitely not there (yet). Overhang quality is bad but I think I may be able to tweak it with filament temp and/or cooling. There's a bit of ringing but I can live with it. My main issues are the large holes in the hull.
Filament: Overture black PETG, 240°C, 24min print.
What should I try?
Thanks
Edit: most issues were solved by doing the following adjustments:
- PETG temperature increased to 245
- volumetric flow reduced from 17mm^3/s to 10mm^3/s
- manually adjusting z-offset with the paper sheet method like on my old Ender3
There are still minor issues like overhang drooping and adhesion needs a bit more work but quality is now almost on par with my previous printer.
Thanks to everyone !
I think OP is asking for help with what to try next to fix the issues on the benchy, not what item to print next.
Ahh, looks like hes got some layer shift and bridging looks like it has some iaaues. I recon op needs to boost his cooling fan a little to fix the bridging issue layer shift could be a multitude of issues tho. What printer is it?
Buddy get some sleep then reread the post lol
