Ender 3 with BLTouch - No bed adhesion
I'm at my wits end with this printer. Any help will be appreciated:
Spec:
Creality Ender 3
Glass bed (normal glass cut from a hardware store to fit size)
BLTouch fitted with all the firmware goodies done and working.
I have calibrated the printer maybe 10 times now. Either by adjusting baby-steps on a live run, OR manually through using M851, setting offset to 0 then auto-leveling, setting Z to 0 again and moving 0.1mm until a piece of A4 paper is gripped by the end and can't move. I then stored that setting (Z-1.5) in the Eprom.
However no matter what I do, my prints DO NOT adhere to the bed. I'm printing with PLA at 220C, i've tried 210 and 200C.
No matter what i do first - either a full print, or skirt or brim as soon as it lays down a line and turns direction it just drags the previous one with it and makes spaghetti.
I've put hairspray on the glass and tried cleaning with alcohol too and both - no effect. I've tried printing all the way down to 10mm/s - still no adhesion. My cooling fan is on 100%, ive tried with it off or 50% no change.
My Cura settings are as in the attached images...
Any ideas at this stage will be most welcome...
