I remember coming downstairs as a child, and I'm 99.9% certain it was around 10 - 11 pm on 31st December 1999.

Im fairly sure my parents were watching some countdown to the millennium show, and I'm positive it was some music TV station (on sky in the UK). I'll admit that this is slightly based on my knowledge of how my parents celebrate new year.

My vague memory is of some guy getting hassled by punks, that is punk rockers. He may or may not have been in a suit. I seem to recall he was meant to be meek. Anyway I seem to recall he was pushed about, but at some point the leader of the punks pees on him from a height?

No idea of the music playing. But the imagery stuck.

Whilst I was only 7, my parents didn't usher me away, so I don't think it was a spicy movie or anything like that.

Any thoughts?

Much better! As you can see near perfect.

Before I go into any detail, let me please thank each and every person who commented on my last post. Reddit was my social media of choice way back when I first got this printer, and I recall having an issue then... And the advice on reddit was, nonexistent. within a few minutes of my post yesterday I had several thought out answers. And to my surprise, not one of them were simply "go buy x printer".

So once again thank you for being such a good community!

Now regarding the print.... The bed was cleaned with 99% IPA, I hadn't realized just how superficial a lot of the marks on the print bed were! Came up a treat with alcohol!

I modelled a print to basically stretch across almost the entire width of the print bed, so that I could do a few iterative tests quickly. Simply cleaning the bed definitely increase the adhesion.

Next I bumped up the temperature of both the print head and bed. 220, and 85 dropping to 75 after 10 or so layers. Now this seemed a fraction higher than I would be happy with, but you can't argue with results? And I did use a few different methods to double check the temperatures involved and they were relatively close.

More is a proof of concept at this point, i made a relatively dilute PVA solution and wiped it across the surface... Definitely overkill but by this point the print was adhering perfectly.

But I'd like to share with everyone here, a revelation. Using only cutting edge techniques, that is, my eyes.... I read the label on the side of the spool which quite clearly said PETG. Which might explain a little bit of my difficulty 😂

Thanks again to everyone in the community.

I'm trying to get back into 3d pruning after a long hiatus.

I found my old Anycubic Chiron, and thought I'd give it a go. Smaller prints seem fine. But anything longer than an hour. Come off like this. I say that what I mean is I excitedly take the multi hour print off the bed in excitement and for get to look at how it is.

The two longer prints definitely were at least in part still adhered to the print bed despite it being cold.

My next plan is to set a print away and check on it every hour or so and see if one side of the print has warped mid print (so far I've been printing before I go to bed, and only watching the initial couple of layers).

My guess it that the (pla+) filament is warping mid print... Its old I'll admit. But was stored in an airtight container with silica packs, and I dried it out before using. But any of your thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
