! this reply is for 30.06.2023 morning state. I’ll post a today’s update around an hour !
THANK YOU for replying. I’m pretty desperate since the r/Ender3 is private and have spent yesterday ~5h trying different settings.
Actually I think I’m leveling to close to the bed. As I described, I slide the paper under the nozzle and tighten the gap to fell much friction. Yesterday with some trial and error, I set the Z-offset to zero and the nozzle was so close that no filament was extruded. I started to make a slight gap as the paper barely drags between the gap and its better this way.
Still ToDo: • Run calibrations for e-steps (printer hardware) and flow rate (the filament you’re using). • Calibrate retraction length using a test print. What’s your current retraction length and speed btw? • should verify that it has thermal runaway protection enabled in firmware.
“I made some printer vibrations dampener” They actually made a noticeable difference in loudness and didn’t cause problems with first 5-8 prints with them: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3649851

Pic.1: First layer adhesion is back but after the extruder goes to second layer it colides with the first layer, messes the extruded filament and moves the print around. Pic.2: Failed prints and the final and best since now being print which can be seen on pic3 Pic.3: Enabled there 0.3mm Z-hop at layer change and the layers were 0.16mm. Was looking promising at first comparing to the previous prints that had drags etc. from the beginning. After some height it went crap again.
Yesterday after another hour or so I think the printer is back on rails.
Gave Cura an another try with this one: https://lensdump.com/a/9ZGlC first successful print from the start of this post
second successful print (Cura too): https://lensdump.com/a/9ZaX5 :
third successful print (PrusaSlicer gave me warnings about supports needed, but Cira didn’t):

Tips/ovservarions welcome and thanks everyone for the comments which I’ve read and gave me ideas what to check/google <3
