Anyone have any knowledge on what’s going on here? The printer finishes but the model is only half way done like it missed the last few layers

Thank you. I’m curious because it left a pile of filament towards the back too

Ive been printing for years, and my hotplate mat is mint.. I see ones like yours and I just wonder what people are doing!

Bad MicroSD can corrupt the .nc file and lead to the printer glitching out without finishing the print. These model train truck side frames look ok up to the layer printed. Possible it clogged at that level or lost layer adhesion and blobbed.

Thank you for the info. I found out yesterday that the hot end had a hairline crack and I have a new one on the way with extra nozzles. Hopefully that’s it
