I’ve printed hundreds of prints over a few years. Now I haven’t printed in a few weeks but this is the first time I’ve had a problem like this. This is supposed to be flat. What’s happening?

    If it’s not clogged (change your print nozzle if yours is easily swappable), make sure the heat is right on the hotend. Extruder skipping can happen if the material isn’t melting fast enough to have the right viscosity and hence the extruder just can’t squeeze it out fast enough. As a corollary, try slowing down your print and raising the temp a bit.
