Tips
- Model requires close tolerances to ensure snug but not tight or loose fit
- Make sure the model cools to room temperature before assembly
- Ensure filament is properly calibrated with no excessive over extrusion
- Ensure good bed adhesion
- Make sure printer is fully calibrated
- Make sure print bed is clean & dry (soapy water is my favorite for cleaning - simple & works)
- Make sure filament is dry (wet filament can generate non-continuous flow that can cause bed adhesion issues)
- Cooling & Temps - make sure they are correct for your printer, build plate, and filament
