I used to be able to print things. Now for the past 6 months or so I’ve wasted spools upon spools trying to print anything and this always happens. I’m just about ready to sell this machine and give up on the whole thing.
Is there anything glaringly obvious that springs to any of your expert minds?

When I see first layer issues like this, my go to steps are:
- Wash the build plate with hot water and soap to remove any built up glue, dry, and reapply a thin layer of glue stick
- Turn the initial layer speed way down, like 10mm/sec, and 20mm/sec for infill.
I’ve heard some people say never use glue stick
And honestly, with modern build plates, there is absolutely no reason to use glue. At least for PLA.
