60 degrees bed, no glue, it pops right off at room temperature without water Problem solved!

Isn't XT a variant of PLA?

No, it is a co-polyester filament based on the Amphora polymer from eastman.

Okay, then water shouldn't harm it even after very long exposure

Getting nice results now, unfortunately I'm not ninja enough to ninja away some stringing that was creeping up into the nozzle and I blocked my hotend causing steppers to stop.
bye 50% print Gonna remove fan cap to reduce issue, as I'm not printing with a fan anyway
But checkout these pictures for the quality!

Change the infill gap to 15% since that's for formfutura that should help with the extra material getting around the nozzle. Also if you use cura turn combing off. Also I readed from nicolinux posts that cfxt20 works better without retractions.

Yeah, retractions are off atm, I would experiment with lower temp/combing etc, but I only have filament for 1 more version, and the current one is going quite well!

I'll be curious what your final settings (in Cura) are for XT-CF20

I can't wait to try this

I had the overhang settings and infill overlap, but those were just for the model itself.

Temperatures:245/60(I used 65 for larger parts)
speed: 45mm/s(little slower for top is nice)
layerheight: 0.2mm (THIS IS A MUST, 0.1 DOESNT WORK)
infill:20%
Bot top thickness: 0.8mm

shell 1.2mm(also model dependent)

Good to know since you have a UMO with heated bed as I do

And the beauty of this is...with my fan being problematic...they aren't needed

You turned off fan and retractions? (Trying to recall where you toggle those off)

Oh yeah I forgot to mention, no fan, no retractions(actually I believe you can tweak this to have just a bit of retraction enough to fight stringing, without underextruding)

I've been awaiting a report of your results

No retractions?

I use 35mm/s and 3.5mm without any problems (Bondtech feeder) and 25% fan at 250°C. Perfect quality with the Ruby nozzle.

I had no fan no retractions, and otherwise Colorfabbs adviced settings
