I've never been able to get a clean first layer with this machine. I have given it a beacon probe and it just made it much faster to get the same problem to happen again. Where am I going wrong?

Your gantry is not in plane. For the rear right corner, you need to perform the following. I suggest you get on the Voron Discord and head to the trident building channel for additional help.

Also what are you doing for beacon probe proximity or contact?
