i have just got my machine built and did a test with the yoda part.

I think the main issue is that the reverse on the extruder is loosing steps.

I think I see some layer height and width issues. The real experts may need to know what hot end, nozzle diameter, layer thickness, width, nozzle temperature, material and what process you used to calibrate.

For the record, that is far, far better than my early prints.

If you don't use it yet, a fan blowing on the part would help reduce the hanging ropes issue.

Most of my technical comments should be correct, but is THIS one ?
Anyway, as a rule of thumb, always double check what people write.
