Fine‑tuning my printer’s extrusion flow feels exactly the same as that coffee grind—just a 0.02‑mm shift in the nozzle height and the layers hold like a perfect stack, no gaps, no blobs. I’ve got a little rule: if a tweak looks trivial, I run a test print on a single line; if it screams “wow” in the first layer, I lock it in. It’s the micro‑adjustments that save the whole batch. How about you?

That’s a solid system—keeps the chaos from turning into a full‑blown print catastrophe. I usually add a tiny “fine‑tune” step after the bed and temperature checks, just to catch any stray micro‑warps. Makes the whole process feel like a well‑tuned machine. How’s your checklist working out?
