    Hi, so I had my robo going great for a while and then it messed up on a overnight print. Since then it’s been low quality prints at best. After some fiddling, I was able to get it a little better but now every cube has some kind of skipping when it lays filament. It doesn’t make any sound or anything, just the filament stops coming out for a second and then comes out fine again every few passes. I’m using 1.75, pretty sure there’s no clog, and I’ve checked the estepper.

    Then I would look for heat creep. Fan on the hotend running all the time? Full speed?
    Not the one that cools the print, but the one that cools the hotend.

    Last option would be to replace the nozzle with a new one. The existing one may have issues. Not the hotend, just the (cheap) brass nozzle.
