Calibration of a printer is very much a cumulitive thing. Looking at your print I think your PA is off, but I would guess that it’s a combination of multiple settings. When calibrating a filament, I usually do a sweep of calibrations, and then sometimes even come back to past steps to rerun since the values can impact eachother.

I.e. I typically do in this order per brand of filament type. Always starting with the closest preset I can find. Usually the generic version if there isn’t the brands of exact filament as a preset in orca.

Temperatue

Max volumetric speed

Pressure advance

Flow

Retraction

Sometimes back to PA because flow can impact PA

VFA/input shaping (optional)

And then toss a tolerance calibration at it at the end, but I don’t typically do this per filament, just do it per printer unless you’re about to print some super tolerance intolerant parts

IMO your flow / pa are off and combined are causing this. But idk, if you’ve already done both those calibrations then I’m not experienced enough to be able to definitively say what the issue is.

Edit: OH, one thing to note, you can increase the flow rate, and then in tolerance you can adjust the shrinkage to get the tolerance correct. So in that scenario increase flowrate, and then jump to tolerance and adjust to get the correct dimensional accuracy. That will make orca slicer auto scale the part dynamically so your final dimensions are correct.

PA can impact more than just corners. It’s when the print head is changing speed/direction

This comment is correct imo. Read / calibrate the pressure advance. I’ve had especially good luck with the adaptive pressure advance and highly recommend taking the time to calibrate it.

Its a little bit confusing to do, but once you get the hang of it and do a full calibration sweep it should fix all the ‘corners have gaps’ issues. (Also just any gap issues between line)

Pressure advance is going to impact any line where the head will be shortly changing directions. So though it typically is corners you can get it with any acceleration change of the print head.

Looks like it’s time to switch.

Interesting. Wonder why they forked gitea

Thank you for the detailed reply! Yeah I realize now Mestastic.Org has everything I need.

Planning to prolly get:

A rak wireless kit for a local repeater on my roof powered via PoE, and then a TTGO TEcho for my personal device.

I know that I should just get the latter and play with it first, but I live high on a hill with a great vantage point of the city so feels like a disservice to the community if I don’t also host a repeater.

One thing I’m curious about, is if I use it via poe, can I also send messages via the repeater? I.e. locally from my network initiate a message through my repeater?

I would want it in repeater mode so it would forward any message even ones I don’t have the encryption key for.

How do I do this? Shats the easiest way to get started?

Both a personal device and a repeater on my house
