Tried to print the Sierpinski Pyramid. Didn’t end well

Hi folks, I had a go a printing the Sierpinski pyramid that came up here a couple of days ago. I aborted after about 10 layers as It was obviously turning out to be a stringy mess. I suspected that it was the PLA was a bit hot, so I dropped it by 10 degrees and printed a Benchy to see how things were looking. I was really pleased with the results, Benchy looked nice and clean.I then decided to have another go at the pyramid, and to my horror it’s just as bad, if not worse.I’m using a box frame original Pursa i3. Marlin->Slic3r->Repiter. My Slicer config is here. PLA at 185oC. Has anyone got any pointers? I’d love to be able to print the pyramid as a gift for a friend. http://ift.tt/25fmykr
