So looks like the nozzle needed replacing, the Amazon replacement nozzles came in and I’m doing a test print rn but do far so good. I’ll follow up when the print is done but it seems to have been the nozzle.

Should be close enough, using a sheet of paper when leveling. Watching the print I notice it doesn’t like to stick to the bed even when latered with glue stick.

Stock ender 3 with metal body

So the extruder seems fine I releveled the bed for the 20th time and even opened the hot end and cleaned it just incase, same issues. The filiment is pla + not glow in the dark but maybe the nozzle is worn out I’ll order new ones from Amazon and check back in when I can

Already upgraded to metal I’m just praying rn lol

Everything is fine when extruding with octo print, no noises or ripped filiment but when I hit print on any files even old ones it seems to start extruding in beads

After hitting too many children the tires will get stuck.

Now we just need the 3d printed controller shell

Maybe hombrew but as far as I know you need some sort of adapter like 8bitdo universal adapter

Keep him on the toilet
