Figured out what was causing most of the issue with the circle printing.

I was looking at the wrong Y belts.
I was checking the tension of the horizontal Y belts.

But then after looking at a couple video on youtube, I realised I hadnt checked the vertical little belt on the Y stepper motor. (even though EagleSeven pointed that out last week :P )
And sure enough it was also slack.

Loosened it and pulled the motor down and tightened it back on.

And here's a test print after doing this. Had to print with a raft this time, probably need to clean the plate and clean the nozzle.
So a lot more circular than before, but still just slight off.
But at least much better off than before.

And as expected, from one problem to another. Seems I cannot make ABS juice with the filament I have. the stuff doesnt dissolve and just sticks together to form a blob.
Reading other forums and it could be because it isnt ABS, but instead PVC, which is worse.
