Issues with “long blobs”
Hello, having some issues regarding what I believe to be extrusion. I’ve checked extruder esteps and everything is flawless. It extruder isn’t skipping. Additionally there appears to be a sort of “drift” along the X axis as the machine’s gantry seems to slightly layer shift to the right, leading to trapezoidal shapes.

is your gantry square? If not, then instead of moving on X it will move slightly diagonal which sounds like what you are experiencing

I've just checked and it's also ocurring on the Y axis too
Though my gantry does not have dual lead screws
ohh this isn't the vcore3?

Nono this is an ender 3
Will be getting a Vcore but wanted to use this ender to make the ABS parts for the Vcore when I get it
going through troubleshooting before that point
with such bad prints like that, you might want to just buy them from #print-services

I'd like to fix them before I give this printer to a friend of mine
Could it be heat creep?
I live in Australia too so there's no-one likely living nearby me to do printing servies either

I'd still like to fix it
they are not mutually exclusive

the issues?
it is not a mutually exclusive choice between fixing your ender3 and buying good prints for your vcore3 build. You can do both

I want to fix it for other reasons.
As for the reasons mentioned
There's some pretty noticeable warping going on
