This time elapsed between the first two prints that succeed and the following prints that fail is less than one hour - moisture is not the problem.

Could it be heat creep causing issues?

I guess that's possible

This used to cause me issues but mainly with layers not bed adhesion. Worth a try checking into.

Greetings all,

Here is a little something I fabricobbled over the last couple weeks. I converted my older i3V from the Greg's wade extruder to a direct drive; mostly because I have gone through several of the big spur gears over the last year due to them getting a bit too hot inside the enclosure I am forced to use to keep ABS prints from warping.
It took a bit of tweaking but it works, and much to my chagrin, it works pretty well. I was able to get it working the Hexagon hot end that originally came with the printer. It seems to push 3mm filament ok so far, (I have a lot of 3mm filament that I don't want to waste but will be switching to 1.75 as soon as I run through it all) All in all I'm pretty happy with it and thought I would share.
