Why is my 3D print warping?

Warping occurs when prints cool and shrink unevenly, causing edges to lift. To fix this, improve bed adhesion, block drafts, ensure a proper first-layer "squish," and use a brim to anchor the print.Additionally, material choice is key. ABS shrinks more and needs an enclosure, while PLA is more forgiving; knowing your filament's temperature needs helps you fine-tune settings to prevent lifting.
