I tried to fix a very minor stringing during print and I accidentally bumped the head. As a result, it's now offset and printing spaghetti. I want to save the print but I'm new to this and I'm not sure how to go about it. So far I've simply taken record of which layer I was on though I'm not sure how far into that layer I was. I've also removed the stringing and gently filed with a small file from a fingernail set.
I figured I'd seek some guidance while it's paused and I'm getting some dinner. My plan for coming back to it is to manually edit the G-code and try to add a bit at the start of the G-code file that will either align with the corner or the very center of the piece that I can then use to manually force the offset so that it will print in alignment again. This is obviously not ideal, but I figured there would be an option for mid-print calibration but I can't seem to find one. I'd rather not lose the print and I'd like to tackle this issue now before it occurs again on future prints.
How do I save the print? the piece is still pretty much as it should be, definitely reckon it's within error margins. If I could align the head accurately and resume print from where I've paused (or preferably from slightly before that when I bumped the thing) then the print could probably be completed successfully.
My printer is a Creality Ender 3 v3 KE and I'm using the Creality print software.
I attempted to edit the G-code by simply deleting all the previous layers and inserting a homing instruction but for some reason, the print didn't begin with an unknown exception raised. I've now removed the piece from the printer bed and I'm going to try and print the remaining portion and bond them after the fact. I'm not sure how to go about cutting the model to the correct size, I've installed Freecad so if somebody knows how to go about this I would appreciate some tips.
