Hi I am new to the whole 3d printing world and I am running into problems with my tree supports what is happening is half way up the print one of the supports starts to move. Heard a little sound like the print head is hitting one side. Did a bit of research on this issue and found some things to try like making the Brim size bigger and using some 3d glue for the heat bed. The print is holding better but even still one side is still doing the problem. Done a level bed check any help be great
Thanks inadvance

Managed to work out how to uplaod images :) From the first image its the support on the left but this is happening on nearly all of my prints that use supports the printer i am using is a Neptune 4 plus could it be my support settings on Cura?

Looks like you've got the 'support on build plate only' or equivalent option enabled. This keeps the model as clean as possible but those trees definitely look a bit optimistic.

Alternatively is there an option to increase the support thickness? Will obviously impact filament use and print time but might make them more stable.
