Good help from this forum with problems this far, but now have a question that not quite can find a solution.
Printed 50mm calibration angle (thing:53668) -> OK), 0,5mm square wall (thing:614999) -> OK, 20mm square box (thing:52946)-> OK. Test plug (thing:52946)-> OK minus; the bits didn’t fit, either hole too small or peg too big.Also s-plug (thing:342198)-> OK minus, there the elevated S, became too thick (the filament floated out). The cut-out S looks OK.
For plug and S-plug: change extrusion width?
Printed “thing:67920 (afro comb)”, but after line 5(of 8) some of the comb teeth came loose from the bed (bed=60°C). Used glass plate ;alcohol-cleaned no rubbing, no hair spray. Try spray before change of temperature (up to 70°C)? Maybe higher extruder temp (now 190°C)?
Printed “thing:430851”, this went well until the neck. Then the filament started sag, got unstable (like didn’t solidify fast enough; fan at 100%). The the extruder nozzle took hold of the “cat” and the “thing” loosened. Reduce extruder and/or extruder motor speed?
More solid things works OK, its those thin, small things that get destorted.
All your printes parts suffer from heavy z-wobble (the repeated thicker layers)
Use a flex coupler between z motor and z axis threaded rod will help a lot, but not completely eliminate that.
Try that at first.
Do I assume correct this part: ZC3DJT16 (on the vellman page)? or also the K8204 (z-axiz rod upgrade)?

Flex couplers are widely available on the internet.
Like this, which i used for my hanging z axis mount for the Leadscrew upgrade. : (the part between motor and leadscrew)
That did help!.
Got my parts, assembeled and adjustet z-axis. Tried to update firmvare from V1 to V2.1.1, but then y-axis wouldn’t work (everything other did), so went back to V1 (found now that I should’ve resat the eeprom…possibly why y-axis didn’t work?). But the result were much better (in picture the old are on the left). All pieces are higher, but still the S-plug and other plug doesn’t fit (hole =9,33mm, tap=10,21mm). The angle is 50,24mmx50,07mm.
On the open square the bottom is on the top (in middle of picture): too much squish? (wallthicknes =0,52mm, "should be"0,50mm)
