  1. Thanks for testing the print, I really appreciate it. I found a calibration print to check the angles of the print. A small deviation in the tower height or rod lengths can produce the type of scaling I'm seeing. It seems the issue coincidentally started when I switched to using Cura. I'll update when I find the issue. Thanks for your help! -D
  2. Thanks for helping out. I printed again to get the actual dimensions for the part which I attached a pic of as well. The Z axis printed pretty close to expected this time which is odd, and the X&Y were still wrong in the same way. The expected dims are X & Y = 19.875 and Z = 15. * The X, Y and Z in the attached image is how Cura has the printer labeled. I measured the part from those points with calipers.

  3. Hello, I've been printing with Cura on a Folgertech Kossel 2020 and found that a part came out printing larger by about 3.2% for the X & Y axes and 10% smaller for Z. X, Y & Z scaling are all set to 100%. The X and Y seem to be slightly different by .2 mm for a 19mm cylindrical piece. Changing the scaling helped a bit but still came out slightly wrong and I had to remeasure and scale again. Still the part is still slightly off. I tried using other software and the part printed to the exact measurements. I would rather use Cura since the print quality and failure rate is much better. I checked all the settings I could find regarding scaling and can't find anything obvious that I have set incorrectly. Is there something obvious I might be missing? Thanks - D
