From a 3d print perspective - holy shit the extrusion is way off. Extra splooge on the corners, layer lines are shit. I'd trash it and recalibrate. Even concrete prints can look better.
Exactly. My printers are currently very pissed off at me for some reason and even in their current state, they could do better than this.
I have an old Ender 3, that rarely turns on, then my Bambu P1s decided to fight dirty one day and the whole damn hotend broke off. Like they glue it up in there or something and I had to buy a replacement... 3 days of torture waiting on that damn thing. But the thing rarely fucks up a print (when pieces don't fall off), even if I do weird shit like leave supports off and bridge a gap like 4 inches (ok, so inside was thready as fuck, but outside was great, and at 4mm thick and it was for my DWV pipe converted chicken feeder I don't give af)
