https://imgur.com/a/oXQJArS I’m hoping you guys can help me figure this out. I have an ender 3 pro, running on marlin firmware. Every time I try to print something one of the corners will lift up like that and ruin the entire print. I installed a crtouch to help with leveling, installed upgraded metal bed wheels to help it not fall out of level. Even tried a glass bed with glue and it still does the same thing. I used a filament dryer and have a heat enclosure. I’m starting to run out of ideas on how to fix this. Any suggestions? The pic is how it starts and that was just a brim since I used to always use a raft and thought I should try that instead.

This really doesn't look flat enough for a brim. Is your nozzle close enough to the bed?

I did level it using paper and using the crtouch. I’m not sure how I could get it any closer

Its honestly really hard to tell with this picture. If you send a better-lit picture of a brim using a lighter-colored filament, we might be able to provide better help!

But something definitely looks off. It looks very thick and very uneven to me, but I also have no real sense of scale with this picture.

In any case, if this is your brim, the mouse ears and other similar proposed solutions won't change anything.
