Layer height was sabotaging my 3D prints, and I didn't notice until the pattern became obvious
Source ↗ 👁 0 💬 0
For a while, I was convinced one of my 3D printers had developed a personality defect. Some prints came out looking great, while others had rough top surfaces, weak-looking bridges, and messy sections that made the whole part feel cheaper than it should have. I checked belts, cleaned the nozzle, adjusted flow, and even started eyeing replacement parts I probably didn’t need. The printer seemed guilty, so I kept treating it like the source of the problem.
