This is my first post as I just got my printer but does anyone have any recommendations for this print? There’s a lot of filler that isn’t stuck to the rest of the print. Everything else is almost perfect except the bottom. I’m using a flash forge 5M with a 220C extruder temp and a 2mm layer I believe.

P.S before you get a million of the same comments, definitely look into printing non 2A items before starting anything that requires high pressures. Print calibration cubes and other calibration test to see what you need to calibrate and fix regarding supports, overhangs and etc... the can isnt a bad idea for a first 2A print but you will definitely need to make sure you have proper layer adhesion and follow the guides down to a T, to make sure you dont have it explode in your face the first shot.
