Tips for Newbie

Hello all, Looking forward to receiving my P1S later this month once it ships out.

Hello! So I am a newbie at this 3d printing stuff but I am having issues with my Elegoo Rapid PETG prints, mainly with the first layer. [20250211_2057271] I have tuned my flow calibration to 0.966 (up from the original 0.95). Although it could go a bit higher according to the flow calibration, I was getting overextrusion on large flat objects causing the top layers to buckle weirdly.
