He shares with us the “checklist” that allows him to make quality 3D prints. Good listening ! Contents: Determine the precise diameter of your filaments for each spool. Check that your nozzle is clean and not clogged. How to remove the filament at the end of printing? Check see change the extruder. (Example) Think regarding maybe changing the bowden for a more precise version. Maybe switch to a direct drive version which has advantages but also disadvantages.
