Any ideas on what it could be would be greatly appreciated?

I have recalibrated the machine, I have wiped down the machine, I have made sure that everything has the right settings. I was also wondering if it could be cura, as that is what I am using?

I have also included a brim, to reduce the warping.

I am using PLA filament.

Your print bed is not level, thats the only problem I see there.

See how some lines are closer together than others? part of your plate is closer to the nozzle when it's printing, but I have to say that is a slightly wierd first layer, the way you have a concentric layer mixed with a linear.. it's like it's printing 50 shells?
