Having horrible stinging issues
Try turning the temperature down a little? The excess extrusion at the end there looks like the hot end is a bit too hot and forcing kind of a lot of plastic.
Printing at 210° just did PID tuning this morning. Fluctuations stay at ±0.1°C made no change to the stringing. Does it with all filaments. And its so bad excess started sticking to the silicon sock lol
Tested PLA and PETG
PETG does this thing where more part fan airflow make more stringing, try at 20% or less and see if it helps.
Print faster or turn down the temps to control the stringing
Slight improvement. Somehow i was underextruding by 12% still little angel hairs of stringing

@Kura_kuea printing at 40mm/s what do you recommend?
@Cristian_Martinez try around 195-200. As long as your layer adheasion is adequate for you.
Gonna try 200. Layer adhesion is what im worried about lol
If the layer adheasion is suffering, try printing a little slower or check your retraction settings
Faster printing requires higher heat, but that can bring stringing with it. Gotta find a sweet spot that work for you ^^
Ok no stringing at 200. Gonna try 205
This was all working fine before i replaced my extruder lol
@Cristian_Martinez What did you switch to?
@Kura_kuea not extruder. Hotend. Same kind. I just needed to replace it since i had a second blob of PETG and i lost some wires
@Cristian_Martinez Ah ok. I use a V6lite I believe if that help tuning yours.
@Cristian_Martinez I found PETG to be a wonderful material. Managed to get it running with very little stinging and amazing prints. Love the stuff, but wish there were more color options
I have an e3d V6 full metal hotend and yes PETG is the best!
@Cristian_Martinez I’ve never understood why use a sock though. Seems to just cause some horrible catastrophes
