This looks like a Kisslicer bug to me.
The part is supposed to be a goblet-type piece. Kisslicer sliced it with no problems and the screen images of the extruder and material paths looked good - concentric circles from the base to the top.
But when the printer started printing it began making lateral moves from side to side, in addition to the circles, and it was extruding filament when it made these moves. Needless to say I have no idea why this happened. I have made somewhat similar parts before with no problem.
The photos are of the same part; the colors are different because of very different lighting conditions.
My Kisslicer settings include Support Off and Destring 9-9-3. What should I look for to fix this?

What is your retract speed? Btw, try to slice by newest cura. It's optimized to less retract.

I think this shows retract speed = 120 mm/sec
I haven't looked at Cura in a while, but I'll check it out again. Thanks.

I had a somewhat similar problem when I unchecked d-string and wipe under Style. It behaved like it picked out a new starting point for each new layer. Very dtrange. The strings mucy thinner though. Strange!

It's normal if you don't enable destring
;p
BTW the starting point is control by Seam hiding options.
check the "jitter"

Thanks Andre - somehow my destring & wipe boxes got unchecked. So I was able to print 2 copies of the quick_connector_spacer with no problems. I'm running another of my goblet shapes now and so far so good.
I did run the connector STL file through the Microsoft/Netfabb Repair Service and it got a lot smaller. I'll upload it in a separate posting because this only accepts photos.

Hi
Birk Binnard
, we are compiling a more comprehensive ATOM manual, and I would like to use these photos of the strings as an example. If you don't mind, would you be able to send us the full resolution files of these two photos? Thanks! (email is utypedesign@gmail.com)

Unfortunately I no longer have the full-size images. I thought the Facebook software saved the actual images as uploaded so I deleted them from my phone. They never made it into Google's backup either - I looked.
But you can easily reproduce this by simply printing a hollow round object with all the de-string settings set to 0.

That's alright, thanks anyway!

Hey Andrew - I just found the photos you asked for - they got saved in my deleted email folder. So I am emailing them to you now.
