[@seanwhaley78]

A great video! Thanks for the advice - it helped clean up my horribly under-extruded prints after mainboard replacement.

[@TheFirstLayer]

Glad it helped!

[@rexxthunder]

I had these problems too. My issued ended up being related to bad boden cable fittings. It was crimping the cable too tight and squeezing the filament, holding it in place. Also I had the tension on the extruder feed mechanism set too tight to try to fix it. This ended up pinching the filament too much causing it to not fit cleanly through the tube.

[@ar-redneck2926]

Help LOL.... I have an Ender 3 V2 for over 2 years and it's worked good up until about a month ago and been using cura as a slicer and some others with the same problem ....the problem I've have is about the first inch or 2 of my print is pretty good but the higher it goes it seems like the worse it gets ... it seems to me it's under extruding and the part is unusable .....I played around with the temperature went from minimum to Max... l also tried different nozzles... all of them 0.4..... tried different filaments two of them completely new in different brands and I also dried them... fans are all working good.... put an enclosure around it..... tried several different prints and they all do the same thing when it starts getting taller..... replace the Boden tube and installed a dual Drive extruder.... I'm using pla Plus..... I change the retraction from 0.2 all the way up to 0.7...... I've adjusted the flow all the way up to 125%..... I went back to an older version of cura.... I've checked all the v rollers everything is free with no slack.... I have tried several other things with no change this is getting very long so I'll stop it here .... Thanks for any help

[@GreenAppelPie]

This has to be the single biggest issue I see in Reddit

[@AndrewT34pot]

bro 🤣 how can you call that cube underextruded, you literally got a full cube. this video clearly isn't for me because on my base print you can cut yourself because of how thin the print is on mine, and it's not the bed leveling that's wrong
