Why are all my prints failing on the bottom layers? Very frustrating.
are all the bottom layers on my prints failing
Looks like you’re trying to print without support? Also how are you cleaning your build plate?

No, I had total supports, and I use Hot water and a very mild soap. I do not use Alcohol at all never had good luck with it. But the bed is brand new I just got the H2S and wiped it with Windex as I do on all my printers. It was doing it with the A1 Combo that I replaced the H2S with. It is only certain print files that it does this with?
The spinning top is from Bambu Labs themselves and it had total supports
It is like it missed the entire first layers and the prints are open?
You’ve verified that the part is actually touching the build plate in all areas?
Are you able to provide the .3mf file for these parts?
The top in included with the printer. I’d choose a different filament and a file you know.

The Spinning Top only touches on the very tip, and the perch only touches on the square support on the handle. Otherwise, they are off the bed and being supports by tree supports
The spinning top is the one that came with the H2S, the perch is a closely guarded design I am working on and preparing for to sell commercially.
So basically, all the poor failed are off the print bed?
I tried printing the perch standing straight up on the handle but the hours to print were enormous
To stand it up would require support up until maybe the midsection, depending on which end. if you don’t mind support print it at a 45 degree angle. Put the big end down and paint support going up at 20mm intervals. Or you can just let it put it on automatically.
I’m too lazy to blow that up but it looks a little under extruded. Did you calibrate the filament or dry it at all?
Nice, where should I send the bill for helping with the project?
