Hey guys, Any help trying to identify what is wrong with this one?
The first layer was pretty flawless except for the top-right side, where it looked kind of grainy. Maybe the plate needed cleaning on that side, but generally the adhesion is solid.
I was away while the second layer was printing, but apparently it failed and it looks like shit. When I got back, it was air-printing, still on the second layer as far as I can tell. However it seems like the nozzle was causing some of the artifacts to form, like maybe it was hitting the first layer or something? I am not sure.
This is on a Bambu A1 mini, with Bambu matte filaments. It is on a brand-new 0.2 nozzle, first print just out of the package. And the reason I got the nozzle was that I had some maybe similar failures before, where my previous nozzle seemed like was showing signs of clogging - i tried some cold and hot pulls, I could do some prints but some where failing so I thought to take this part out of the equation.
Any ideas what maybe could have caused something like this? The filament? I had tried drying it a while ago i believe, I can try again and I got a brand new one as well, but I wouldn't believe so because the first layer seems pretty good at the beginning. Could the plate maybe being dirty have caused buildup of crap on the nozzle and lead to a failure? Could it be something I can try maybe with the Z axis (although I have no experience with this? I did another calibration now though). I had read about AMS tubes as potential reason, but not sure how to tell. Any ideas what to check?
For reference I am trying to print something similar to this in different colors. I have already done 4 prints in other colors successfully.
A quick search and this all makes a lot of sense.

Oh for fuck's sake.
I'm not surprised.
It reminds me of a maze I made for a game server. I laid out my paths and then looked from above and realized that some intersecting corridors had accidentally formed a swastika. Upon noticing it, I thought "oops", and adjusted the maze to remove it. I didn't stubbornly leave it in because it wasn't intended to be that, I recognized what it looked like and immediately knew I didn't want it in something I designed.
If I were making a board game and I realized I'd just about put the SS logo in it as a resource marker, I'd do the same and just change the marker. Easy. I think most people would if they noticed it. When someone makes the decision to instead include it, it might mean that they just didn't notice. But it also might mean that they did notice and give zero shits about being associated with nazi imagery, even if they weren't intentionally going out of their way to include it.
This dev may not be a straight up nazi, but they certainly don't seem to give a shit about being associated with or known for espousing bigotry.
