Review on πŸ”΅ Fused Materials Blue PLA Filament - 1Kg Spool for 3D Printing by Andrew Lyons

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fixed an issue with permanent and instant filament clogging in Ender 3

**Update cause below** There was an issue that occurred after printing was performed at least a few hours after the clog. I don't know exactly where the problem started, but after "unblocking" the clog with the nozzle wire, the clog re-blocked after only about 10-30mm of thread. I changed the nozzle, changed the filament (several times) and even switched to a dual gear extruder, nothing worked. I pushed (using touch menu extrusion) about 200mm of this cleaning filament through the nozzle, multiple colors of filament came out. . Then I pushed through the regular filament and tried to print again. To be honest I'm surprised this stuff solved this problem. Again, not sure where or what the problem was, but this fixed an issue that had occurred over 20 times when unlocking with the nozzle wire. **The problem was that the nozzle and PTFE heating neck/tube were pressed right up against each other** The nozzle does not need to be flush with the heating block, but the heating neck and PTFE tubing do need to be flush with the nozzle.

Pros
  • 3D printing filament
Cons
  • Dear
