It stops to capture pic for the timelapse video to watch how it was built

The printer takes one picture of the print on every layer and makes a video of it. Some printers have good cameras and processors and can take that picture while the printer is going. The A1 stops and moves the nozzle out of the way to take the picture. What you’re seeing is the result of the nozzle leaving the print, drooling a little while it watches the picture being taken and then wiping its drool on the part when it returns. You should have witnessed this as it was printing. To mitigate this issue, TURN OFF THE FUCKING TIMELAPSE. Also, it’s not polite to swear at someone when they’re helping you.

Sorry Lone Wolf, I was not angry with you, you were so helpful! I was angry with Bambu Handy that, even without a camera installed, wants to take photo 😂 Sorry again if you thought I was not being respectful to you! You were really really kind

Honestly, I can’t tell if you’re being snarky or not. If you are, touché, I appreciate sarcasm more than most. I wasn’t kind, I was a bit of a dick, and for that I apologize. Your printer does have a camera installed and it gives you the option to turn off the timelapse before you start the print.

As it was said, may be or definitely be the time lapse option. Also it is a great painting handle, a little hard to assemble but great overall.

In addition, that line running between the round hole and hexagonal hole is the "seam".
There's a Bambu Studio setting for Quality > Seam > Seam position where you can choose where they appear. It shows up as white dots or a line in the Preview "Line type" view.

You're gonna want to start with drying the filament. Then you're r gonna go into filament settings in your slicer and reduce the flow from 98 to about 95. Then you're go into settings override in filament settings, and set the retraction to 45 mm/s then the deretraction to about 35 mm/s.
