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> ?

And with polymaker mixed Berry filament also

your filament is twisting as it gets extruded

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?

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
