 +=== Nozzle hits the printed object ===
 +Its possible when the nozzle temperature is too low that the nozzle starts hitting the print when it gets > 10cm (approximately). This is easily detectable as you can clearly hear this. This can lead to a print being knocked over, it can also lead to a layer shift. The easy remedy is higher temp. In my personal completely biased experience: small complex models I print at 190C (less stringing) while higher less complex models I print at 210C to prevent crashing (at the price of stringing).

 +=== Axis rails not parallel ===
 +A very rare, but still real possibility that has occured before: check that the rails on your troublesome axis are parallel. If the rails are not parallel, then there will be an increase in friction as the carriage slides along the axis. **Even a small deviation of less than 0.1mm can cause issues!** If you find that friction changes along the length of an axis, of that it gets stuck in one part of the axis, then check that the guiding rails are completely parallel.
