With the nice cube printed, but i can't show how good the printer can do on the carve printing, so I decided to print a sphere, I tried to print 2 spheres but both screw up halfway as the nozzle keep running into the model.
At first I thought it might because of the sphere object got some over hang area then I tried to print a 1.5cm height cylinder, turns out ok. I keep on printing a 5cm cube and it happened again.
I found the solution of this issue at the makerbot forum:

Answer from the forum:
Chances are that you're putting down a little too much plastic. You'll probably want to either:
- move the platform faster (feed rate)
- put out less plastic (flow rate)
both are in the 'speed' tab in skeinforge…
some useful link:
Feedrate or flowrate
