Printing... Mess

I know I'm supposed to continue with testing and calibrating the printer before playing with it. But I can't help but to try out printing more interesting but useful things. Allow me to indulge myself ok? Just for today...

After being able to print out the calibration cube with decent result, I was wondering if I can successfully print the adjustable endstop adjuster.

See for yourself what came out...

Started well.

Ended crappy...

Total mess...

On the positive, at least the gear like knobs are rounder than the first print. In fact, that's all the positive I get...

The next print I'd in mind is to replace the missing upper portion of the spool holder. This SHOULD be easier as everything is round. But...

Looks good?

Look again. Round?

It fits the bearing but the other end refused to go into the spool hole...

Let's try the filament guide.

This is how it should look

The first part

The guide

This was what I printed

Zooming in. To use this part, I'll have to do lots of cleaning up.

From the 2 sessions, I can conclude that the printer I have is far from being able to print anything useful. More work, more help needed...
