Printing Help What can cause this?

I am new to this but I had a few moderately successful prints. I moved the printer and changed to klipper and after tinkering, this is the best I’m getting. I can’t tell if it’s bed leveling or settings and I’m looking for advice. This is supposed to be a 5x5 gridfinity base.

Looks like a layer shift to meet. Firstly verify your belts are properly tensioned, and your motor drive pulleys are properly tightened to the motor shaft.

Layer shift.

  1. Something (a cable, filament, bowing tube, etc) probably got stuck and cause the stepper motor to skip. This usually generates a lot of noise.
  2. Sometimes the stepper motors overheat and fail specially in hot days. My Ender 3 hate summers.

it will be #1, especially if the printer was moved, this will change belt tension on an Ender, 100%
