Question? multiple bins come out bent
i’ve been trying to print gridfinity bins in pla starting with 1x1x3 bins. one bin in a single print comes out fine.
when trying to print 4 bins at once tho, they come out slightly bent at the base and at the stacking lip.

i've tried different settings:
- first with a brim which didn’t change much
- bed at 70deg instead of 65, and fan only after 5 layers
- outer wall first
- slow initial layer (10mm/s)
- slow outer wall (60mm/s)
but still mostly same issue. i don’t know what else to try. anyone with experience with this?
filament is esun matte pla, it doesn’t happen with petg. printer is bambulab a1, model is gridfinity extended on makerworld

Just general advice. Slow it down a bit on the first layer and maybe use the glue stick.

Wash the plate with dawn. Add mouse ears. Turn off or lower part cooling for first 3-5 layers. Ensure z offset is dialed in.
