At first I figured that I didn't get it close enough and I leveled it countless times both with a paper in between and also by eye and feel to try to make it work. Then after I applied gluestick to the glass bed the nozzle came slightly closer to the bed because of the glue layer and the prints ended up looking like on your pictures. Moved the bed closer and closer thinking it was too big of a gap causing the plastic to not squish against it properly, but the result only got worse.
What ended up working for me was increasing the distance between the nozzle and the bed quite a bit. I'm guessing that when the nozzle gets too close to the bed it kind of drags on the plastic causing it to curl up behind the nozzle. Kind of like if you put a rubber band on a flat surface and push your finger down on it hard while also pulling it along the table, the rubber band will raise off of the surface behind your finger.
There's a really fine line between having the nozzle to far from the bed and too close to the bed, and it can be very frustrating to get it right. Especially with glue on the bed and with certain filaments.
I am actually using raft not gluestick or abs-juice. This is the result i have tried again after i create this content 😞
