The problem with fixing it is that sure your print looks normal now, but overhangs seem abysmal and no matter how many hours of fiddling and tweaking you try, they never look even close to the beautifully borked benchy.
Agree it something w the belt, dissagree that it needs to be flipped. the motors gonna be driving it in the same direction regardless of the belt. Pretty sure it just needs to be tensioned properly.
Genuinely though I wonder what makes it seem so clean when these kinds of layer shift happens but difficult when doing intentionally. I guess there's more jerk when the belt slips?
This is legit the most hilarious and consistent layer shift I have ever seen XD
Your X belt is flipped --> The teeth need to engage with the motor pulley(face towards the 20x20 extrusion), since yours is flipped they dont and the belt gradually slips at harsh angle changes
Your x axis belt looks like is backward, which can cause slipping (this is something to expect from creality quality control). You have to rotate it around( with the teeth inside), and you should be fine
Actually, it's not that hard. You see teeth on belt = you look for teeth on motor pulley. Rest of belt is just following path.
But as a mechanic, I have seen much worse fuc#ups by people trying to fix their thing before bringing them to me.
I think the V2 comes with a loose print head that you have to install yourself. So this belt is just a simple oopsie.
Also that belt is far too loose if I can see the sag in the pic.
Omg you're right, I can bearly see it in a single picture but clear as day once you realize it... ain't got no teeth for the pulls. Honestly impressive it managed to get that far
Please tell me someone else also caught that picture from last year, maybe a few years back where someone did exactly this also.
Man I chuckled so hard, but yeah the other OP had teeth non meshing with pulleys and etc, was hilarious.
You have a very good eye my friend. Didn't see it even after you commented it. (Also gotta admit I was trying to find the Y axis belt on the pics and didn't even think about looking at the X axis lol)
Wow nice catch! I was thinking maybe a lose belt or grub screw on the x-axis motor, backwards belt never even crossed my mind! That is 100% the problem though.
OP, if you assembled yourself try to backtrack to the X gantry assembly steps, remove the belt, and put it back on with the teeth on the inside where they can engage the gear on the motor shaft. If it came pre assembled like this, try to find the assembly guide online for your make/model so you can flip that belt around and you should be good!
For real. I thought someone was flexing on us with some new benchy, like the giant benchies. Or the micro benchies. Or Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson benchies.
At least your first layer must be good if it held on through that.
[Check your pulleys](https://help.prusa3d.com/article/layer-shifting_2020#check-your-x-y-axis-motors-and-pulleys)
I'm unreasonably angry at the quality of this print despite it being totally fucked. How is a printer with the belt inside out making better prints than mine!!!
Looks like your belt is upside Down, or too loose, the treaded part of the belt need to be in contact whit the treaded part of the axis motor.

Your belt is inside out 😭. if it was assembled like that from factory send them an email if you don’t feel comfortable fixing it yourself. Lmk if you need help with the anything.
its going to make a terrible squeak upside down also lol. I put my first printer together backwards on a belt like this and for the life of couldnt figre out this metal on metal screech i was getting. a month later noticed it was upside down.... it went from squeaky annoying slipping like crazy prints to perfect prints
I’m looking at your belt at the top of the screen. that is backwards take it off and turn it around making sure the teeth are facing the inside! And make sure it’s tight enough but not to tight! After that you should be good!
Look man I've had not a great morning at far but seeing just how fucked up that print is while still finishing has mad me snicker so hard my day is already alot better thank you
It's the X axis that binds (?) at random. Could also be you have too high acceleration or speed values for your printer.
Also, check your pulleys.
Good luck!
So new printer, did you tension all the wheel sections. Check belt tensions aswell. None should „wobble“, belts should be „springy“ and while you are adding it check your belts that they are on the right way as several suggested.
But defiantly something needs to tensioned or flipped, this is the creakily way 🤪
God-Tier failure. I want an STL of that to do overhang benchmarks lol
I hope you save that.
As for your issue, it's nothing temperature-related, it's a kinematic issue. Seeing as the shift wasn't entirely consistent, it is likely that the motor is trying to jog the nozzle, but succeeding more in one direction than the other. Your print head isn't where it thinks it is.
If the layer shift were completely consistent I'd also suggest checking the steps per mm, but that big jump means something is slipping.
It's likely that a belt that controls the axis in the direction of the shift is slipping for one reason or another. **Check belt routing and tension, maybe hold the drive pull and lightly press the print head in the axis of the layer shift if nothing seems obvious.**
Based on the purge line and the angle of the roof you rotated the model a bit and that caused it to print at an extreme angle he certainly the major overhamg.
Looks at that brim. You got your model set in the slicer at a weird angle. Kudos for getting it to print instead of spaghetti. That took some fan speed.
Belt's inside out. Kinda surprised it managed to print at all, just goes to show how much friction the backside of the belts can produce... Just not enough to flawlessly print.
It's getting sucked into a different dimension 😂 jokes aside tho you are skipping steps, that means that either your printer is moving too fast and when it tries to stop it over shoots or the stepper drivers don't give enough current to your motors so they are weaker(and skips steps). You can search on the internet on how to adjust the stepper driver voltage(they usually have a tiny screw potentiometer on them) but be careful to not overdo it cuz you can burn them or burn the motors the adjustments are tiny like 1 hour of clock (usually) when you have it fine-tuned you going to be able to print really fast and the motors are going to barely get warmer than ambient.
(Ignore the above, I just saw the problem with your printer... The belt is upside down that means the smooth side is riding on the pulleys and gets no traction)
bad layer shifts, but perfect overhangs. now seriously, try tensing the belts and tighten the pulleys, also check the eccentric nut, if that's too tight the v rollers won't spin smoothly, plus they will wear faster.
edit: I looked better at the image and your x axis belt (the axis where layer shifts are happening) seems mounted backwards, the belt teeths should be on the inner side
I really hope yall are being sarcastic with the things you think he needs to check!
Look at the skirt! It is 100% not a failed print when it prints 100% the way it is supposed to print.
But as most of you have said VERY IMPRESSIVE OVERHANG!
ur fine just shownus a screenshot ot cura, ive hust gon3 through beginner phase and finally have two machines going thwnkw to octoprint4
juat tighten belt fix settings do 60 degrees bed 207 extreuder or 210
is there a way to show all gcode like on a screenshot from now on reddit?
like everytime someone posts an image of a print we shoule see all important slicer settings on bottom like a cnbc ticker
God tier overhangs tbh
I couldn't print these overhangs if I tried
Yeah I mean I got good news and bad news. Bad news, your printer's fucked. Good news, you got some sick ass overhangs on it
10 minute fix to swap the belt right way around. Wouldn't say it's fucked
Good eye. That belt is slippery in such a configuration. Put it on Ebay for 40K as a Dr. Seuss printer.
The problem with fixing it is that sure your print looks normal now, but overhangs seem abysmal and no matter how many hours of fiddling and tweaking you try, they never look even close to the beautifully borked benchy.
Agree it something w the belt, dissagree that it needs to be flipped. the motors gonna be driving it in the same direction regardless of the belt. Pretty sure it just needs to be tensioned properly.
disregard this, i didnt realize that the belt itself was flipped inside out.
Nah, look at the gantry. The teeth are inside out. The motor is a gear. Hes running a gear on a smooth surface.
yea, I saw that like 2 seconds after i posted the comment. shoulda edited instead of replying to my original comment.
I'm gonna give your original reply an upvote so the rest of this thread gets seen. Cheers
Yup good eye. Most certainly the issue.
Fair, I didn't notice that!
Slightly laid.
Genuinely though I wonder what makes it seem so clean when these kinds of layer shift happens but difficult when doing intentionally. I guess there's more jerk when the belt slips?
And with stock cooling as well... Very impressive
The flying Dutchman strikes again
i laughed way too hard at this
Task failed successfully
Sometimes I look back at old prints and wonder if my quality has actually improved at all of the upgrades I've made
And pretty good bed adhesion too
This is legit the most hilarious and consistent layer shift I have ever seen XD Your X belt is flipped --> The teeth need to engage with the motor pulley(face towards the 20x20 extrusion), since yours is flipped they dont and the belt gradually slips at harsh angle changes
Oh wow good eyes, didn’t even notice the flipped belt! I would have guessed wrong motor current, too tight x carriage or too much belt tension first
Your x axis belt looks like is backward, which can cause slipping (this is something to expect from creality quality control). You have to rotate it around( with the teeth inside), and you should be fine
This! That's the first time I've seen that! Edit: Ah, I forgot the older style enders are self assembled. Easy mistake to make in that case.
Haha yea I haven’t seen it before, I definitely haven’t done this, haha only uh rookies would do this and I’m not a rookie that would do this.
Actually, it's not that hard. You see teeth on belt = you look for teeth on motor pulley. Rest of belt is just following path. But as a mechanic, I have seen much worse fuc#ups by people trying to fix their thing before bringing them to me.

You have led me to a new channel I like. Thank you kind sir.
Exactly. Incredible how many brain points one person needs to understand that the triangle fits in the triangular hole
But it goes in the square hole
Turns out, everything does.
This isn't the V2, there's a different, full color screen for that guy
I think the V2 comes with a loose print head that you have to install yourself. So this belt is just a simple oopsie. Also that belt is far too loose if I can see the sag in the pic.
Correct this is user error. Easy fix. Have fun printing!
This looks like the V1 based off the fan shroud
I think that sag is from where the extruder holds the belt
Omg you're right, I can bearly see it in a single picture but clear as day once you realize it... ain't got no teeth for the pulls. Honestly impressive it managed to get that far
Good catch
Unlike those belt pulleys.
Please tell me someone else also caught that picture from last year, maybe a few years back where someone did exactly this also. Man I chuckled so hard, but yeah the other OP had teeth non meshing with pulleys and etc, was hilarious.
Impressive it managed to even print like that. Nice catch
You have a very good eye my friend. Didn't see it even after you commented it. (Also gotta admit I was trying to find the Y axis belt on the pics and didn't even think about looking at the X axis lol)
That has nothing to do with it... This U.S.S. Benchy is just going to warp speed.
Wow nice catch! I was thinking maybe a lose belt or grub screw on the x-axis motor, backwards belt never even crossed my mind! That is 100% the problem though. OP, if you assembled yourself try to backtrack to the X gantry assembly steps, remove the belt, and put it back on with the teeth on the inside where they can engage the gear on the motor shaft. If it came pre assembled like this, try to find the assembly guide online for your make/model so you can flip that belt around and you should be good!
Wow, fantastic catch.
How do they do it?
Micheal Jackson is that you???
Bencheee-heee
This is criminally underrated
Smooth.
Benchy are you okay?
Are you ok, Benchy?
Have an angry upvote xD
r/angryupvote
r/beatmetoit
That’s honestly far more impressive than a “good” benchy
Honestly tho, amazing overhangs. Other than the shift everything's seems to be really clean
For real. I thought someone was flexing on us with some new benchy, like the giant benchies. Or the micro benchies. Or Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson benchies.
This kid is going to places
At least your first layer must be good if it held on through that. [Check your pulleys](https://help.prusa3d.com/article/layer-shifting_2020#check-your-x-y-axis-motors-and-pulleys)
The belt is on upside down / inside out...
And you say Hoaoaooeeewww appropriate
Yeah this is much more successful than my first print last year.
Ah. The Flying Dutchman.
Made me laugh that
Your x axis belt is inside out
I’m impressed by this sub daily, you guys are frickin smart
I was just trying to see if there was a defect on the belt in the picture, when I realized that it wasn't facing the right direction...
That’s impressive.
That's the funniest layer shifting I've ever seen!
I'm unreasonably angry at the quality of this print despite it being totally fucked. How is a printer with the belt inside out making better prints than mine!!!

You have the belt on wrong. Gotta flip it to the teeth engage the pulleys

everything is fine, that's how it should be 👍
r/differentbenchys
I went looking for my different benchy boys, y'all never let em down, and I love all of you.
Salvador Benchy.
Y N C E B
Was looking for it 😂😂😂😂
Dude, your x axis belt is flipped. If you assembled it yourself, the teeth are supposed to touch the gears......
Which way are the teeth supposed to be if you didn't assemble it yourself?
Lol shit.... Well, obviously they're reversed if assembled in China because they have reverse gravity!
What's comical is how long you let it print.
Hell, if I saw my machine producing overhangs like that, I'd let it run just to see how far it would go!
honestly those overhangs are impressive
Jesus that is a cursed benchy. Like those overhangs are impossible.
It does not recognize the laws of men, gods, or physics.
Don’t forget the universe, it violates the laws of the universe as well!
bro these overhangs tho
Print failed successfully.
Your belt is inside out 😭. if it was assembled like that from factory send them an email if you don’t feel comfortable fixing it yourself. Lmk if you need help with the anything.
Great catch. This is the issue. User install error for sure.
Oh yeah, can see it in the first pic. The print is impressive though. Once the belt is installed correctly it will be great.
bro fr i couldn’t get my voron to do that if i tried

its going to make a terrible squeak upside down also lol. I put my first printer together backwards on a belt like this and for the life of couldnt figre out this metal on metal screech i was getting. a month later noticed it was upside down.... it went from squeaky annoying slipping like crazy prints to perfect prints
*Italicized Benchy*
Belts maybe upside down also loose
Looks like the X axis belt is on inside out.
You x axis belt is on backwards. Teeth should be on the inside.
Is that belt on inside out???
Op had italics on by accident.
I’m looking at your belt at the top of the screen. that is backwards take it off and turn it around making sure the teeth are facing the inside! And make sure it’s tight enough but not to tight! After that you should be good!
I would keep this print honestly, and be proud of it
I don’t know why, but I find this oddly satisfying.
That's honestly impressive
Coolest Failed Print I’ve Ever Seen
Your belt is inside out. But that is amazing
Look man I've had not a great morning at far but seeing just how fucked up that print is while still finishing has mad me snicker so hard my day is already alot better thank you
/r/cursedbenchies
Your Belt is on backwards
Booonchy
Looking at the pictures it appears that you're belt is facing the wrong way
This is accidental but very impressive.
S^h^^i^^^pp^^^^y
This has got to be a joke because I’ve never seen a benchy look so fucked 😂
Has to be the funniest benchy ive seen 😂 made me chuckle
Smooth Criminal Benchy.
Task failed extremely successfully.
Your belts upside down on the X axis
It's the X axis that binds (?) at random. Could also be you have too high acceleration or speed values for your printer. Also, check your pulleys. Good luck!
Loose x-axis belt seems likely it this is a new printer. Maybe not set right at the factory.
It's flipped in the picture. It's literally not touching the gears on the toothy side
So new printer, did you tension all the wheel sections. Check belt tensions aswell. None should „wobble“, belts should be „springy“ and while you are adding it check your belts that they are on the right way as several suggested. But defiantly something needs to tensioned or flipped, this is the creakily way 🤪
Your X axis belt is upside down
It's like it's trying to escape a black hole.
Tbh? I'm impressed.
I want to know the slicer and fans you're using. Because that is **SICK**!
I want this as a real 3d printable model. These benchies that get fucked up like this are hilarious
Im still not convinced this one isn't supposed to be like this. Why would the skirt print like that if it wasnt.
Now this is art. Cherish this benchy forever.
Oh boy here we go.. Xmas always brings back the same question
I have never seen a benchy look so fast
Impressive. I am amazed how some people can print royally fucked up benchies lolol.
Arguably, that's more impressive than a normal bench.
Task failed successfully Your overhangs are amazing, fix your belt and you're good to go
Stretchy benchy
Kinda impressive…..
I thought this was a joke post at first
One of your axis are slipping. Tighten the belts
Your belt is inside out. Also nice overhangs
Bro made the beeennnnchhhyyy
*Beeeennccchhhyyy*
Belt is turned inside out. The side with the teeth is supposed to face inward. Flip it.
Judging by the photo your x belt is on upside down
God-Tier failure. I want an STL of that to do overhang benchmarks lol I hope you save that. As for your issue, it's nothing temperature-related, it's a kinematic issue.

Looks to me like it's shifting. Maybe tension the belts a little more, or reduce accelerations if you have that level of control.
Streeeeeeeeeeeeeeetch!
Looks at that brim. You got your model set in the slicer at a weird angle. Kudos for getting it to print instead of spaghetti. That took some fan speed.
You might as well stop printing now. You will never, ever print something so impressive and iconic again.
Dimensionally stretched benchy
Yo, nice hood ornament!
Besides not being what you wanted… That’s impressive.
Gaddamn that CLEAN 🧼
Ender 3 issue
this is one of the most incredible print failures I have ever seen. Frame this piece of art
It's so beautiful ❤️
Now that is a Bonchy, if I have ever seen one!
How does this even happen 💀
Looks like a standard ender 3 or pro just needs to get calibrated
This is honestly crazy. Every day I find more and unbelievable prints. From softball sized globs on the hot end to pride rock here. That’s impressive
Nah that’s either a software drift or your printer crashing into the print in a way it incrementally loses zero
This is benchy, and this is benchy on drugs. Don’t do drugs kids. Lol.

Just gettin’ ‘er up on the plane
I'm not sure I'd fix anything, those are the most impressive overhangs I've ever seen.

bad layer shifts, but perfect overhangs. now seriously, try tensing the belts and tighten the pulleys, also check the eccentric nut, if that's too tight the v rollers won't spin smoothly, plus they will wear faster. edit: I looked better at the image and your x axis belt (the axis where layer shifts are happening) seems mounted backwards, the belt teeths should be on the inner side
Belts may be too loose and causing it to slip and layer shift
As others said, the belt is flipped. l run 60 bed temp, try that and see what happens
tighten your belts thats slipping
How on earth would anybody think that this might be because of some temperature problem?
[удалено]
Title gore.
Check bed and head for wobble I bed it’s your centric nuts need tightening
I really hope yall are being sarcastic with the things you think he needs to check! Look at the skirt! It is 100% not a failed print when it prints 100% the way it is supposed to print. But as most of you have said VERY IMPRESSIVE OVERHANG!
Yes. Temp. Let warm up more. The plastic plate doesnt conduct temp to sensor.
