Aw jamn, I've just spent the last hour in gimp trying to learn how to make a denim pattern and apply it to beans so I could make this full circle jeme 😭
Yeah I got the same thing where it seems to pull when it's switching direction but it's nowhere near as bad as how it is on yours. I'm thinking it might be a physical issue with your printer.
Actually noticed my settings were not "default" at all because I had selected options in the calibration test section. I just started an actual default print with a top, bottom, multiple walls and infill hahah.
I'm printing with grid infill. Gonna cancel and try with gyroid.
Well, I just printed a cylinder and my seams are just fine with "default settings".
I say "default" because originally I saw some weird stuff in the preview but it turned out to just be because for some reason spiral vase mode was on by default.
Yeah that's definitely a possibility. I'm just finishing up my start g-code, gonna see what happens if I try to print that cylinder. Hopefully my printer doesn't blow up or something 🤞
Did you notice this kind of thing happening before you switched your hot end? I'm assuming you've tested printing at a higher temp already but I have to ask anyway. 200C is kinda low for some PLAs.
That's a really weird looking z-seam, something is going on there that I'm not quite sure the cause of.
However, in this case I think you could try randomizing z-seam position. It's not gonna fix the issue completely but it might help you with this particular part.
Bahah thank you!
Of course, that's pretty much why I did it in the first place hahah. I'm not actually upset about it.
