Holes in first layer..
Any idea as to what setting I can tweak to resolve the holes in my first layer test print?
So I did my first ever 3D print
It's been pointed out that the print isn't quite good. While I'm pleased with it (because I had no expectations), I want to do better.
For reference, I just printed the default cube in superslicer with no setting changes. I'm using formfutura reform rPLA...
Pot holes on surface

PETG Temp tuning tower
Ive recently switched to using PETG from PLA filaments.
usually print at 240deg and 80 bed but white PETG filament seems to fail on every print, its dry , Just out of the packet, other colours of the same brand printed fine just cant get white to work consistently, redid PA and smoothing setting, and have just done a temp tower ranging from 260 deg to 220, its changing temp where it should, I watched it but there's barely any difference in the results at differing temps. Should there be ? Seen pictures of other peoples towers and they go from fail through good to fail.
Is the temp range not large enough in mine ?...
Differences in first layer between prints?
On the lfet (A) is the print from the first batch, on the right (B) is a part from the second batch, which I started right after completing the first batch. Every setting for B is exactly the same as for A. What causes the terrible first layers on B?
Disconnected infill, grid, triangle, cubic.
Hi, can anyone help me debug this disconnected infill issue? It's a 0.4 nozzle, diamondback, lgx lite extruder, mosquito magnum hotend. 220c PLA.

Rough top layer
First time using Priline PC CF and having issues with a rough top layer. Almost looks like the nozzle isn’t being lifted high enough 🤷🏻♂️
Don’t have the issue with pla for reference!
Any tips?...
Gaps in infill
Ever since I upgrade my machine from a v-core 3.0 to 3.1, I've been having issues. Mostly around the 4028 fan I think. I'm printing Overture PETG with no fan now and that seems to have fixed a lot of the issues. Except my infill still looks terrible. There are gaps in the infill lines which end up sticking up a bit above the current layer.
Here are some pictures of the first 3 infill layers. You can see the problem snow balls and continues to get worse because the infill layers below them aren't great.
I'm printing at 240c. ...
First few layers are not consistent
I've attached two pictures. The first is ABS printed on my RatRig, the second is PLA Pro+ printed on my Prusa.
I'm trying to produce the same results with ABS on my RatRig as the second picture. It seems that the first few layers end up with artifacts, any idea what causes this?
I'm using the RatRig configurations in SuperSlicer with very minor modifications. My bed mesh isn't great, typically a range of 0.25mm-0.38mm, it's not all that consistent for some reason. This is a 400mm V-Core 3.1 printing on a smooth PEI sheet. The Filament has been in my Dryer for days at 75C. I am running two linear rails on the gantry with no aluminum extrusion....
z banding more visible on one side
What could cause the z banding to show more on one side then another? This is pla.
Also the z banding is spaced 4mm apart is this lead screw wobble?...
Weird wobbling?
Hi I have a ratrig vcore 3 500 and My prints are looking weird. I don’t know the cause can someone please help.
Edge Deterioration
Hello! I'm trying to push PLA as fast as possible, but I'm getting some terrible corners on a speed tower long before the wall surface degrades (ignore the bottom warp which happened when I pulled it off the bed, and ignore the top most layers). I know the nozzle is moving much slower at the corners, but I'm not sure why it is deforming so much. Fan at 55% or 100% no effect. Temperature at 220 vs 235 (a bit worse).
Ringing on only one side of the print?
Whenever I print a flat surface on the y axis, one side has terrible ringing and resonances, while the other side is perfect. It seems to only happen on movements when the printhead is moving back, not forwards, so I think its an issue with direction. Could this be a motor/driver related issue? The issue doesn't show up on any of the other sides, so i doubt it
The picture shows two different sides of the same print, both on the y axis.
i recently changed my cable chain to a USB, but the issue didn't go away, so I'm guessing its not that....
Superslicer general config help...
Need some help, just jumped from Cura to SuperSlicer for V-Minion as it looks like best option by many users...
I've gone through all set up using as a base RatRig's standards and modifying some to higher speed where needed,
start to print and speed is way off what I have set in slicer and accelerations change at its own.
Could somebody give a look at what I might have wrong?
Thanks, (edited)...
