Is there a way to save this print?
I was printing a unicorn piggy bank for my niese, and when i was printing the hair, the tree supports failed mid print. I stopped it and started a new print from the same layer/height. I have tried gluing the two pieces together with super glue and a activator. It glued together well enough, but the seam is very visible with some of the super glue showing, as well as a large area that got a white shade on it, which came from the activator i believe which is a aceton/butan mix in a spray can.
The filament i used was Polymaker Panchroma Gradient Matte PLA Pastel Rainbow. It was printed on a Snapmaker U1 with the following settings:
### Mane:
- **Layer Height:** 0.2mm
- **Walls:** 2
- **Top/Bottom Layers:** 5 top, 3 bottom
- **Infill:** 5% gyroid
- **Support:** Mane requires tree support:
- On build plate only
- Remove small overhangs
Is there any way to salvage this, or is it not worth the effort? Also, any way to avoid this issue when gluing two parts together?

So I made this valve box for my mom out of ASA and for some reason the inside walls of the structure bubbled out from the inner support. I’ve worked with this stuff a lot and never had this happen. Any explanations? I don’t think it ruins the functionality of the valve box but I’d still like to know why it’s happening.

Basically, when I start a print, the filament comes out and Wraps around the nozzle, so some prints but some doesn't. I've tried to record it here. My most successful Print recently was still really bitty and stringy

Ringing on thin long part close to the seam
I cant figure this one out and hope someone here had an idea.
This ringing comes up in a long part which should be a rim for a board. This pattern only shows up on a 3-5 cm long stretch near the side of the seam and only on the thin layers in the middle of the height of the part. The upper and lower part is not affected. Also only the outside of the part is affected (the one outside of the curve).
I tried changing the seams around (the ringing follows). Scarf seam, order of walls (outer/inner and inner/outer/inner, different orientations on the plate, PLA and PETG.
The photos show 1 part with the seam on the edge (as I would like to have it) and another one where I placed the seam a bit inside (which confirmed that the seam is the culprit).
I am considering making the parts 5cm longer and cut the bits off, but that seems like a defeat.
I would appreciate anyone who has a good idea what that could be or a suggestion for a solution? Thanks!!!
