Fixing a 3d Printer by Cleaning and Leveling with 8 Easy Steps

I found a spaghetti monster 3d print fail on my Elegoo Neptune 3 Plus printer, and decided to walk you through the steps I take to fix it by cleaning, tram, auto bed leveling, and setting the Z offset for the nozzle. This is the most realistic and in depth way I can help you with figuring out what you need to do with your 3d Printer. When these mistakes happen, it's often because we as the user did something, or some outside interference like heat or cold, humidity, etc. Remember to have patience, and take your time. If all else fails, go back to square one and start again.

The Pokemon print was a Ditto/Gengar mashup for my son @cosmicflame-_- who does AI music and videos on his channel.

Screws tilt calculate is infinitely more better than using paper to level.

I was getting hellacious layer shifts all the sudden on my new N4Pro, so I spent all kinds of time perfecting bed leveling. Then I started getting warping on the bottom of prints and rough surfaces on the top. While watching this video I was running a flow rate test and looked over to find a giant blob of filament globbed onto my nozzle. I cleaned it off and am running it again. It does take the patience of the Buddha to get these things going sometimes, it seems.

Just received my first 3D printer a few days ago. I’ve had some perfect prints. Then others come out as a spaghetti disaster with certain sections of it. I’ve adjusted settings on the printer, and within the Cura program itself and nothing seems to change. Just seems like specific files don’t want to print for me haha.

Dawn dish soap then dont touch it and maintain it with iso after each print, when you start encountering problems again rewash with dish soap and repeat...........

I use glue and never had a problem with PETG, as that's all i print in. Also i like glass as glass is level, so no dints. I have a magnet plate but never used it. I print with Head temp at 80c and plate at 240c never have a problem but i do have a level detection on my ender 3 v2

I'm actually thinking of rebuilding my old any cubic mega zero 2, as I have a glass for it but I never used it. I've always wanted to use glass for the bed, but then I short circuited the motherboard. That was an old video lol

i had a 4 day print on some figure pants and it turned into spaghet

I've done the same on a helmet

Dont forget...
Dont do it cold.
Level your bed with everything up to working temperature.
