  1. Hi all,

     

    I've just assembled a new PrintrBot Simple Metal and ran through some calibrations and the first recommended print, the fan shroud. Thought I'd have a go in Sketchup at creating a part for a cosplay and my resulting print isn't coming out like the STL in the 3d viewer. I'm guessing somewhere in the conversion to g-code there's a problem.

     

    Here's what the part looks like in Cura:

    and here's the resulting print.

    I stopped it once I realized it was going to add a layer almost every pass around the part. It looks like it's at the first 'step' out inside the hexagon.

     

    How can I check that this isn't going to happen with my prints? And what can I do about it?
