I have been trying for many hours now to print this circular model, but have been running into inconsistent extrusion and stringing. just before printing this, I successfully printed a set of Hextraction tiles, so I'm not really sure what the issue is. I also printed this model successfully in the past with the same settings.

I am using a Sovol SV06 with stock firmware, and PLA with the hotend at 195° C.

I also did a full calibration to see if that would fix the issue, and it did not.

It looks like underextrusion at speed. It might be a clog or you might want to try a higher hotend temperature. PLA can have inconsistent ideal temperatures even with the same brand due to different colors and additives between batches and 185 is on the low side.

That was a typo it was actually 195, but still thanks this worked!
