2nd layer problem

Hi.

When i start print my first layer comes out very nicely but when the printer starts the 2nd layer it looks pretty messy on some points at the middle of the layer. after finishing 2nd layer and moving to third the problem is gone and print is doing fine again. Im printing first layer at 195c and others at 185. I noticed that when printer goes from 1st layer to 2nd and decreases the temperature it drops too much. Temperature goes to 180-182c and then very soon rises back to 185. Is this normal and can it be causing the problem?

Thanks for help in advance!

 

Do you have a photo showing were it gets messy?

 

This happens on 2nd layer. after that if i keep printing it will dissapear in to the print as all other layers are coming out fine. I will try printing all layers on 195 and see if it gets better.

 

Could this be a levelling issue since it on one side?

Looks like the filament is not low enough to stick or make a bead. Raised.

I have the same kind of issue, I have checked the level and it is fine. I have been playing around a lot with slic3r settings to see if I can get around this issue. once I have something that works I will let you know.

Stuff like this work great tho (yes I know it is a much smaller object)

--- Update ---

on layer 3 no issues:

new slic3r setting:

infill -> Fill density -> .4
infill -> Fill pattern -> honeycomb

solid layers -> top 1, bottom 1.

Hope this helps ...

 

That helped me, Jason. Thanks!
