So I’ve just bought my Anet A8, put it together, broke a piece (the hollow screw to the extruder), bought it online and fully assembled it. I leveled the heating bed the best I could, and started it. I uploaded benchy to it (I think I don’t have to explain what that is:) ). To my surprise, it actually printed something (I tried it a few times before and it wouldn’t stick to the bed). So I let it go for a while and when I looked at it it was trying to print in the air air and this was what was on the board: (the print on the left)
(when it was on the board there was also a cloud of filament on top)
I wasn’t too happy with the result as it wasn’t even completed. So later I tried some more things and it eventually printed the things on the right (they are in order from left to right, I stopped them because I wasn’t very happy with the result)
The third one seemed the best, but The fourth one looked identical on the board before I let it print further.
Please help me I have no idea what I’m doing wrong and I’m getting pretty desperate.
