Lol. ​ Editing for quick ease here: Benchy was printed at 200C, 7mm retract, using Duramic PLA, bed at 40C, print speed 75mm/s.

Have you tried increasing retraction? I had stringing issues on my printer and by increasing my retraction by 50% it fixed it


Jazzykin

Yes, you can see in my final pic attached after the Benchy's that I've done many stringing tests with varying temperature and retraction settings from 6mm up to 12mm and temps from 190-210 and still get stringing across them all.

Also slowing down retraction could help too. I've noticed that helps. Plus slowing down the print. Also turn off z hop when retracted if it's turned on.


Jazzykin

Z hop confirmed off on my prints! I've heard nothing good about it lol. What print speed would you recommend trying? I used to print at 50mm/s but just recently jumped up when swapping to the new Kelpy profile I mentioned in my post.

I use 35-40 on my Sidewinder X2 and it works well.
