I left the print over the weekend and I came back to spaghetti. It looks like something, caused the printer to push the print off its base like it was a poorly leveled bed?

I still have to watch the camera footage to see what failed, but I hope you guys get a chuckle out of the spaghetti monster like I did.

Ender. Happened back in the days with a 3v2, the stepper drivers on the original mainboard overheat, causing it to 'miss' steps.

Replaced the MB with an improved version, tuned the vRef and never had any issues again.

You might look into tuning the vRef for your machine.

Thanks for the tip! I’ve been hesitant to start messing around to much but I think it should if it means it’s more reliable
