Hello, I got weird color shift with polymaker dual color mixed-berry and currently I'm printing my fourth Bordeaux octopus bottle holder from STLFlix, after three successful prints with the tricolor ERYONE filament. However, the fourth one seems to be exhibiting the same strange issues with the gradient. Any idea where this could be coming from ?
any <@&1122587817768398938> ?

your filament is twisting as it gets extruded
thanks for your answer, what can be the reason ? i've check the spool and the ptfe just before the extruder and it seems to face always the same color :/
Not sure why it’s twisting
This is a result of the filament twisting between your extruder and hotend, not the filament itself. You can attempt to tighten the tension on your extruder to see if it helps, but it is not a guaranteed fix.
I’ve only had it happen on twirl gear extruders like vzhexteudort
Are you using the AMS or spool holder?
AMS for the one currently doing, I can't remember the one before
I think that may be introducing some issues. I would try from the spool holder and see if it helps
ok thank you all for your answer I will wait for this one to finish anyway, and try your fixes 🙏
I Come with an update that I think can be helpful, I didn’t remember but i’ve done this model few day ago with Two spool and the end was done with the same faulty spool as the octopus so I think It’s more a factory issues
