Hey everyone,

Stilll having good success!

My main issue right now is stringing and blobbing. I feel like plastic is pooling in the nozzle, between the teflon tubing and the nozzle melt zone. If the teflon tube was longer this would not be an issue.

Does anyone have some tips or should I just buy a new piece of tubing and replace it?

Lowering my extrustion temp did the trick.

I now have everything working again, with the default (slightly edited) 4-axis config values.

Does anyone have better steps/mm values for the X Y Z and A axes? I think mine are close but a bit off, using 1.75mm PLA I'm not getting the correct dimensions on a test cube, and the amount of plastic in the cube is incorrect, there should be more.

Also, I think that the accel and Velocity values are not ideal for my printing. If anyone could just link me to some values they have used other than the default 4-axis values, that would be greatly helpful.

If anyone has any questions for me, just let me know.
