Been trying all day to calibrate this machine my bottom layer is got the elephants foot going on!
I have calculated my extruder esteps as well as my XYZ Esteps too I cant seem to figure this out I have played with the extrusion multiplier as well! Good Times!lolstrong text 10mm cube height is coming out 7.78mm
What is the first layer height?
Is temp too high? Nozzle and Bed
Decrease flow to 95% on first layer.
Check steps on the Z.
Scale up to 20mm cube for the fun of it.
I’m sure there is more but if you haven’t checked these, what can it hurt.
Somewhere there is a steps per inch or steps per cm setting.

On the z access i made a start and finish mark on the frame and moved it 100mm then measured it it was spot on 100mm.
The extruder i marked the filament at 100mm and extruded it using a extrusion calculator then repeated the process till i got it dialed in.
Also dialed in X,Y
First layer height is
.22 mm rest is .28 mm
Bed temp 60
Layers 180
try slicing at 2.0 for giggles. Should not change anything though.
180 is cold for most PLA but if its extruding , what can I say.
