    @PaulBohn Před 29 dny +2

    Thanks for explaining that. It was still plugged after doing both these procedures, so I heated up a guitar string (0.011") and shoved it in the end of the nozzle and that was enough to remove the blockage.

    For the last example, I use my old guitar strings to pull cold clogs. I take the 5 or 6th top guitar string and heat it up with a lighter until red hot, then push it on the stuck filament. Wait a few minutes until it cools and then pull the clog out. WORKS LIKE MAGIC !!!

      Pro tip. Heat the hex and leave it in the nozzle to cool down.
      then twist and you'll hear a pop then slide out the stuck filament

  • @ImmortalReaver

    My god I wish I’d found this before following another CZcams clip where the first thing they suggest was dismantle the hotend… it took me four hours of pain to get the printer working again afterwards when it didn’t recognise the hot end fan.
    If I’d watched your video first I would have avoided potentially destroying my new printer 😮

    @DEtchells Před rokem +5

    This was great, very straightforward and to the point. I hadn’t previously known the proper procedure for a cold pull, many thanks!
    I also had never seen the trick with the hex key, to pull out broken filament, *BRAVO* for that! (A ball-end hex key would be especially good for this, as the ball would give the filament a lot to grab onto :-)
    A note though: It would depend on the alloy the hex hey is made from, but heating it might result in a change to its hardness or toughness. - So probably only do this with a key hey you don’t care about using in high-torque applications.

    • @techwithkramer
      @techwithkramer  Před rokem

      Thank you for your feedback. Totally agree, the hex key to use definitely should be one you don’t use as your main tool.

    • @techwithkramer
      @techwithkramer  Před 10 měsíci +2

      I have some and they say the particles will be sticking on this, but I think there is not much if any difference using regular PLA for a cold pull. So after using it up, I wouldn’t buy it again.

  • @AiTeee

  • @ViewDark
    @ViewDark Před měsícem +1

    Thanks, a neat method to removing a broken bit of filament that worked perfectly. I would recommend using something other than a hex key, it ruins the temper on the tool. I used the back end of a small drill bit held with a craft knife handle.

    • @techwithkramer
      @techwithkramer  Před měsícem

      Thank you. I agree, don’t use tools you still use after. I just have so many hex keys from every 3D printer I ever had, that I can easily ruin a few 😂

    • @techwithkramer
      @techwithkramer  Před 11 měsíci

      Well, the best is not to touch it with your bare hands LOL. I use a folded paper towel, but some gloves might work better and be safer.
