On my pruge tower you can see from added photos that on the purge tower Im getting build ups in 2 spots which cause a layer shift. What can I do to reduce this behavoir? Thanks really appreciate all the help lately! 93600924_1090888597951382_3266827020977307648_n 93986192_676509226442368_4553454697209397248_n

Yuo probably have the new filament feed too long so it builds up too much material. So in hwcfg. make sure the total rapid.retract length is more that the total feed length. Looking at the values you posted, you are feeding quite a lot more that you are retracting, almost 3 times which will cause filament buildup

Ok awesome let me make those changes! Thanks man again really appreciate the help. If I get this worked out my A10m hwcfg should work with all the M series as the only difference is bed size.
