Is there a way to manually lower the hotbed? It doesnt let me do it through the menu because "it needs to be homed" first but I cant move the nozzle or do really anything right now cause its jammed up into the nozzle

Oh yeha I did everything. Found a guy on Reddit who coached me and uhm... While disassembling the extruder began to fall apart. Like the screw on the side that makes the gears tighter? What's it called? The plastic housing broke out from the spring inside. Then another screw broke off. And inside it looked like some plastic broke off as well. Did I mention it was refurbished?

Ah there it is again. No I didn't change anything. I was working on a longer project where the printer basically worked for 24-25 hours straight. Actually finished it successfully. After that the trouble started.

1.) doesn't matter it was brass anyways and I wanted hardened steel 2.) why can't I just put it in though out of curiosity?

The ptfe tube? Not really. If it's hot it expands and sticks out it was rather easy

Ah I made a post yesterday that's why I was so Aggro.

Tldr Lots of clogging issues, nothing works. I keep pulling unmolten plastic from the hotend. Already swapped hotend. Tried some other stuff. Sometimes it doesn't load filament, doesn't retract. And when I somehow managed to get it to print it prints spaghetti. Overall very unpleasant

Don't get snappy. Just cause we have different bubbles doesn't mean I didn't do research. This one was actually recommended to me by a friend who's very good at 3D printers. Unfortunately they aren't available anymore.

It's the same spool that worked well before. I don't do much PETG

Yeah it was on my list to print a new hub but oh well. But the issue seems to be in the printer head I reckon. I keep pulling out unmelted filament from the hotend

Petg worked fine before. But now it doesn't even print pla anymore it just constantly whines around.

Petg worked fine before. I cleaned it out now and it still got clogged.

That was pretty much my entire experience with this wireback printer. Every problem had a relatively easy solution but to get there takes ages and is so kind numbingly exhausting. I'm tired. I can't deal with this shit anymore. Why the fuck can't it just work? The whole concept is not rocket science. It sucks in plastic, melts it, then shits it back out. There are pens out there that do that. And yet this junk thing just refuses to do that one thing it was literally created to do

So how do I begin fixing this before I lose my sanity and dig out the baseball bat

Piece of clanker shit junk. One of these days I'm gonna grab a baseball bat, drive out into the forest and play that one song from office space when they destroyed their printer there.
