<p>I thought the answer was ABS, but I read about how some people used it to print parts that were used in plumbing, and they failed when put under constant load, and some said that PETG is better for this application. I want to print bases for my table legs, would PETG be a better material to use?</p>

This implies that the nozzle itself is the probe for the leveling procedure. It is important that there is no filament left on the nozzle and no debris is on the bed (of so, this causes incorrect measurement of the bed surface and results in a too large of a gap between the nozzle and the bed).</p>\n<p>Normally, when you replace a nozzle, you need to re-assess the distance between the nozzle and bed with the so-called &quot;paper thickness&quot; method.</p>\n<p>This video of the CR-6 shows that paper is still required:\n<div class="youtube-embed"><div>\r\n                <iframe width="640px" height="395px" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/QRyJRGzTGYE?start=0"></iframe>\r\n            </div></div></p>\n<p>As seen from the first layer of the raft (which by the way is totally unnecessary for PLA) the nozzle is too far from the bed, you see this in balling up of filament and cutting corners where filament is dragged and not deposited. The video does show that it is required to set the Z-offset to the correct value during the printing of the first layer. It is advisable to decrease the Z-offset, alternatively you can set a Z-offset in the slicer, e.g. Ultimaker Cura has a plugin called Z-offset made by Fieldofview to set a different offset directly as slicer option.</p>\n<p>You may also have an adhesion problem, probably caused by the incorrect distance, but an adhesive might be beneficial too.</p>\n<p>Reprint and post a question on the quality of the print.</p>\n'}]
