Welcome to 3D printing, there are may things that need to correct for any of it to work well. Unfortunately those are not always correct out of the...

Is a table saw worth it? Is a set of golf clubs worth it? Is an iphone worth it? Only you can answer the questions is a new hobby worth it to...

Looks like you starting height is changing between the front and back. Nozzle has no room for plastic to come out. So your bed is not level or the...

I believe the difference in size is more so the fact we are using plastic than the type of fabrication although FFF is going to be more problematic...

No, the more plastic and less adhesion points make a stronger part. So for larger items bigger nozzles make stronger parts. I normally use a .3 ...

having one of these handy works really well at the final clean up after you get the gob off and in between print jobs to keep the nozzle clean....

+1 for onshape, it will take time to learn it and figure it out but well worth the effort. I have not made any gears yet but if you can get a photo...

That is not stringing, the extruder is crossing areas that are already printed and leaving marks. This is a normal artifact of FFF fabrication. I...

The plate on my Makergear move about .05mm at 110C vs 70 for PLA I always print calibrations squares and adjust the z offset for different bed...

There are a number of things you need to deal with to get a good print with the correct size and height. 1 Bed level (must be level within .02mm is...

Well something is coming loose.. and either moving the part (bed shifts) or the extruder

I think so, there is com port config settings and there are 2 exe prusa-slicer and prusa-slicer-console which opens a command window, however I use...

Most slicers have a Z offset where you can alter the starting Z point within the software so you set it to .1 and then do a -.2 in the slicer to...
