Print quality troubleshooting [https://www.simplify3d.com/support/print-quality-troubleshooting/] Yes the link is to simplify3d but you dont need the softwear to use the guide, gives really good advice with pictures to help identify what problems you have.

Sure you can have people tell you what to change but you wont learn anything, having a play around and understanding what changes affect what parameters will help you later on diagnose and trouble shoot issues.

One thing I will say is not to print directly onto the PCB heatbed, get some glass.

Im sure I read that you could print directly onto the Mk3?

My dad is actually tweaking the settings as the printer is now at his house as he was getting impatient with me making the brackets for the endstops

Stepper current was too high, height was too high, nozzle size was too big.. erm.. Still playing though.
