Firstly thanks for the reply, it’s much appreciated
Haven’t tried to print again, but will switch to 0.2 when I do
At first I used your start gcode here

).
I measured in a few places, got anything between 2.95 and 3.1mm so I decided to go for the lowest value, and see if I got too much plastic from time to time. One could argue that the blobs and strings might be examples of that but as you pointed out, overall, it seems to be lacking plastic. The Filament Packing Density is set to 1.0
Thanks for the explanation, I hadn’t altered that but I will certainly do so for the next print.
Yeah sorry about that, I had them both set to 4 for all prints(besides the calibration cube which the repg26 SF35 high quality profile handled), so a thread width of 0.40mm for all. I’ll up it to 5 as you suggest for the next print.
Sorry, I was a little bit vague in my comment, I wasn’t talking about the layer shift which I also thought was due to the nozzle hitting a blob.
It’s not easy to see in the photos, but earlier when I was talking about infill intersection with the perimeter, it seemed to me that the infill itself was shifted a bit to the left relative to the perimeter of the whistle, but looking at it again it’s not really a shift, it just misses or intersects too much in places. For an example of “excessive intersection”, in this photo

you can see that on the opposite side of this ridge, the infill doesn’t touch the inner perimeter of the whistle indicating that in that area the infill has come too far down.
Do you have any idea why that might be ?
Thanks for the help.
