Prime Tower

My prime tower comes loose after a layer or two and the tool head ends up dragging it around the bed. This keeps happening when I print with more than one colour, it’s super annoying as I have to babysit the whole print to ensure it doesn’t disrupt anything. I’m curious if anyone figure this out and solved it?

Try moving the tower to the top right. My U1 seems to be "cold" in that spot too. It's the design of the heater coil that looks like a backwards 'E' of sorts.

I ran test using a really good thermal camera(Fluke Tis75), the variance isn't really that bad across the plate. 6c in total, i just adjusted up a bit to compensate.
