I think I’d be a little less creeped out if it was an Etsy link. I’m not against promotion, but when it involves my kids, I’m super suspicious and protective. Also that link the way it is, isn’t one I’d let them visit.
Edit: or even less creepy, if you could share your store name and just say search for us on Etsy or something. Direct links from unvetted sources is a security no-no.
It’s also hella creepy. If someone handed this to my kid at Disney World, it would likely be straight into the garbage. This is step 1 on how people get malwared/defrauded, and/or abducted.
I recognize your intentions are likely pure, but it’s the world we live in. If you really want to hand stuff out, IMO you should skip the link.
Drop your Z axis more than it was in the pic, I’d try at least two 0.05mm more steps down, and maybe even more. You want PLA to be pretty squashed. Stick a piece of computer paper in between the nozzle and the bed and lower the nozzle to the point that it takes a fair bit of resistance to pull the piece of paper out. That’s the amount of z offset you want with PLA.
As others have said, you need to cool off a bit too, try 60 bed, 195 nozzle. See how it goes, you can always go up a bit or down a bit as it prints too. Try 60/195 though, no fan for the first 3 or 4 layers.
If it’s in the same spot every time, it’s very likely something wrong with the model. It’s inexplicable when this happens, but it does sometimes. Could try a different sd card, doubt that will make a difference, but you never know.
To me, it looks too uniform and consistent to be something with the printer.
Right on. Well look, I hope it’s a great trip for you guys. Travel safe and vacation hard!
