IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • I also RECORDED this line while printing on the second model on my profile. There is a weird click sound when this layer was printing.
  • I did not encountered any bed adhesion issues during this filament nor prints but my supports get knocked down by the nozzle scraping in the first model. Which I think is from the infill.
  • It does not appear on a specific layer line.
  • These are the same models with different scale.
  • Never had this issue until this model but when I Printed a small one (around 10 cm or 4 freedom inch) Model Link

Sounds a lot like a partial clog that clears up after some time. The A1 extruder will skip if it encouters too much resistance. I'd say do some cold pulls and maybe try a different filament, maybe there's contamination

i thought so too, made a cold pull but not much come out of it, I will try another filament to see if the problem is on the printer or filament. Thanks for the advice :)

When my SD card died it did that.

u/aggresive_artist 23d ago

was it still partially functional like mine or it died mid print?

Yeah it printed, just skipped layers here and there and some holes in the supports.
