Portabee Print Quality

Hello,

Can anyone help me. My print quality on my portabee is ridiculous I've used every configuration settings I can find on the Internet including the ones from romscraj's site to no avail.

I'm trying to print this model:


Here are my 3 attempts:


As you can see my print result doesn't quite look great. It's holy and string but pretty much matches the shape.

It seems like its a flow issue as the flow is not very smooth. I have tested the feeder and it works well (without the heating barrel in - as I can't see after that point) and the tube seems firmly in. One of those examples is even extruding until it appeared to be flowing and then started a print.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Thank you in advance.

Luke.

Hi Luke.

most probably is the temperature after the temperature,recalibrate the printer bed to be as level as possible.
1st time prints are always ridiculous, its normal,its the learning curve.

Thanks guys, using your suggestions I have got the print out looking reasonable (still not perfect - still need to do some tweaks).

What I did was:
* Turned the print bed up to 60 degrees
* Set the shell thickness to 2 mm (this did wonders with edges)
* Changed the fill density to 80% (the JustPrint3D guide recommended structural parts be around 80% and mine was set to 20%).
