I was just told the reason I have perfectly patterned banding, with bands the width of the Z Axis screw threads consistently across all my prints... is because my FEP isn't tight enough.
Mind you the FEP is as tight as a drum, and sounds like a snare drum without the springs.
Also, if the FEP was loose, the problem would be on every layer, or random layers... not a perfect pattern the width of the Z Axis threads.
Last of all, if it was simply the FEP being loose, why did the severity of the banding change when I adjusted the carriage, and again when I loosened the Z Axis Stepper Motor mounting screws?
Am I going insane or am I just a lot dumber than I thought?
...mumbling "FEP is loose, are you F'ing kidding me?"...
