A first print turned out to need enlargement because small features aren't that precise. More interestingly, the top layer was nice and flat in the large areas, but was over-extruded in the little parts between holes.
Between the parallel slats the edge is fine but the in-between is over-extruded due to going back and forth very quickly |
For a second print, I also lowered the Z-offset a bit to avoid elephant foot that was closing up the slats. That was, of course, the wrong thing to do - it doesn't lower the plate, but the hotend, so I got even more elephant foot. Stomp!
The third print came out better, though still has some of the openings that should match a line distance not quite do so. Also, there's a huge blob in one of the slats. Anyway, it's just mere tweakings from now. The extra extrusion in the narrow parts is still there, but I'll just live with it.
