Fourth try on a print. Tried to add some adhesive to the bed to get it to stick better. Watched the first two layers and went to bed. Woke up to a printer on strike.

I've run into adhesion problems when the room gets colder.

works 99% of the time, but when ambient temp goes below 70°F everything starts failing.

Interesting. All of my prints that failed were running overnight when the temperature dropped.

What temps are you running your bed at?

Shouldn't be an issue then, even when cooler. how's the adhesion of what's left on the plate?
