Bad printing quality for unknown reason

EDIT: Also, bed and extruder both say 21.7C at idle so I assumed they were set correctly.

since they are all 100k thermistor the 25C degree value is the same for all. they differ at high temperatures.

Ok I set the thermistors to B3950 like the original config says since I can't find any documentation about the parts from the kit. I'll run another print after I auto tune and see how it goes.

Veti

can you post a link to the kit?

@Veti Its the full BLV MGN Cube kit https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000216439704.html

@Veti I think it printed better but it still has the weird lines artifact. Printing a benchy now.
EDIT: Benchy failed but same story.

Hey, I just happen to see you said Cura, just a wild guess on my part. Is your Slicer set to 3mm filament?

maybe they supplied a semitec thermistor. try B4725 C7.06e-8

@brotherchris Nope, I have the extruder and material set to 1.75mm.

I slowed down the printing speed to 30mm/s and on one side it printed almost the same, smaller blobs. On the other side, though, it printed with minimal blobs and shows pretty clean lines. I'm tempted to blame the feeder... its a knock-off dual drive feeder and I had to rebuild it like 10 times to make it smooth. My friend also said it could be the hotend which is a v6 clone. What do you think?
