I would love the know the secret how to have continious filament feed
Hi ,
I have tryed having the tension tight and less tight on the extruder and it works just while the first layers of filament are put down then the feed stops.
I have cleaned the hobbed bolt with a brush and the same thing happens again, again. I have set the temperature at 220 to see that makes any difference. I thought that I might not had the filament hot enough. I have spent 4 hours today with out any luck. Other peolpe seem to be able to do it, why not me. Use blue tape and hairspray and the first layer sticks. If you look at the picture , I have moved the print for the purposes of taking a picture.
Filament is PLA 2.85mm in diameter, have the bed level, extruder seems to worlk ok.
Frustrated!
cheers
Colin
