    Looks like different parts.

    I have one side that I did print. I still have the issue dragging through but after looking at the stl i noticed that the printed part is different. The back is not supposed to look like that all all. So why would my printed part be different than the stl model?

    Attachments didn't work, but for a start increase your retraction length and calibrate e-steps per mm.

    back top corner there is a part that is missing, and it seems like not even the right shape. the rest of the print is fine. have done several prints and this model is the only one i am having issues with.

    it was the firmware on the ramps. it was for the 8" i3v. so it would cut off the print. updated the the 10" version and all is going smooth.
