Any idea why this is happening? I just cleaned out the nozzle and tested it after this and it’s not clogged

looks like a clog

#

howd you clear the clog?

#

I took off the nozzle and the top piece (forget what it’s called, the part the tube goes into) I cranked it up to 230 and pushed the petg tube thru until I cleared out the gunk and then put it all back together

thats right... i would try again make sure you put the bowden through all the way when the nozzle is back on.. and the filament is coming out straight after

hearty cairn
#

It comes out straight when I push it through

#

No curling or anything

#

But I’ll try again

noble birch
#

is that using the etruder?

#

extruder

#
