OK, so I’m fairly new to 3D printing, and have spent that time with PLA. I moved over to PETG to try something new. I printed the following object in PLA with no issues, with PETG, not so much.

I’m using eSun true white.  
Temp of 239  
Bed at 70  
No cooling fan  
Filament measures pretty true @ 3.0

The bottom layer and fill seemed to go just fine, but as it made its way to the to layer, well, take a look…

I"LL take any and all suggestions : )
