There's a fairly active german section of this forum here: https://community.ultimaker.com/forum/124-deutsch/ There seems to be quite a lot of shrinkage on the first layers. Did you use anything on the glass printbed to improve adhesion? And what's the temperature in the room the printer is in? A cold room or a draft could affect adhesion and shrinlkage/warping. -

It might help if you provided the model so we can see what you're trying to do, but for now my advice is that in the scale tool, make sure Uniform Scaling is turned off: -
Thank you so much for your attention. Based on what I researched all day yesterday, it seems not possible for me. I have decided to redesign it again in a way that will be much easier for me. -
I'm trying to print shrinkage plates for parts I've already printed. For the first attempt, I open the provided 3mf file (from the "Designing for Metal FFF" academy course), scale the provided plate to my part in the x, y-directions, then slice. The parts states that it is only .2mm thick and will only take 17 min to run. This seems off. When I compare this to the screenshots provided by the academy course, mine appears to be too thin. Do I need to scale in the z-direction? Any other suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong? Can I design my own shrink plate? If so, how thick should it be? Thanks in advance. -Jerrod
