Thanks for the reply, yeah I got it dialed in a little better with a re-leveling after replacing the PTFE tube, turns out it had been awhile. PTFE tube looked fine so i'm thinking the leveling helped a bit. I'm still getting a bit of stringing and every so often my first layer likes to curl up in some spots, but I'm trying to find some happy ground. I may grab a fresh nozzle (and some more spare tube) but I think i'm gonna upgrade the cooling fan shroud since this one blows kinda directly on the hotend/nozzle on one side. I'm gonna try a shroud that blows all around and more down toward the material. I also lowered the temps from 210 to 200 for pla and it maybe that helped, gonna play around with more temps.
