I am stones throw away from getting rid of this thing...maybe getting a I3 clone.....

edit:
Could sell this one for $600-700 and get 2 I3 clones. If the hype is real about that new raptor stuff from MG what is point of working in ABS anyway right? I just don't know what else to do here. I have literally tried everything I can think of. I have slept maybe 8hrs in the past 4 days. Have wasted around 800grams of material. Nothing works!

I feel your pain!! I just had a melt down also.

Are you printing from SD card or USB? If SD card, it might have an issue. I have read that some cards do not work well for this application.

My first thought is overheating. Does it happen at the same point in a print like height? Maybe a cable is failing or something else and loses connection at a certain position?

When it stops feeding has the motor shut down? If so, at that point can you test for voltage from the cable?

Just random thoughts.
