Here's a picture of my problem.
I decided to run this as a long print test. I noticed that during long prints my layers start to get out of alignment. If you notice the dogs head the layers look great, then something happens about the shoulders and layers shift then it happens at the top. It appears to only be in the y axis. And it has only happened on longer prints. I have an R2D2 dome (1/4 scale) that had the same issue. Sorry no pic of that at the moment.
The belt is tight and the parts stick well so i don't think it's either of those things. My thoughts are it's either losing steps somewhere along the line or maybe my computer is messing it up? I'm just looking for some opinion at this time before I start chasing my tail. My first attempt may be to play straight from the sd card and take the computer out of the equation. Any other thoughts would be appreciated.
