  1. Is that cheap glass really Borosilicate?

    I have recently been in contact with a manufacturer of Borosilicate glass quite well known in Europe and they told me that their borosilicate glass is not manufactured with the aim to get even surfaces.

    Standard glass is often much flatter than borosilicate glass. And I have no doubt you can buy a 'cheap borosilicate glass' in China which would turn out to be standard glass if checked with appropriate methods.

    One more remark to the test method: please be aware you are testing not only the flatness of the glass but also the straightness of the axes (although Ultimaker axes are very straight nowadays).

  2. Apart from the forced bed levelling and the 'forgotten' retract those issues sound to me rather like Cura issues. I think the new beta fixes the single extrusion with the second core; at least according the change log.

    Connection to the UM3 from Cura 2.3.1 seems a bit delicate to me. I sometimes have the situation that Cura doesn't find the UM3 automatically and also not on a network scan. However, if I add the ip number, it immediately finds and names the printer.

  3. Check if you can move any of the x and the y rods. If so, untighten one pulley of that rod and tighten it again so the rod does not move anymore. You may want to look how close to the edge the belts are running over the two pulleys in question and then decide which to move.
