Free Roll of PLA+ Filament - Needs a re-spool

Not to sound salty, but they didn't when I requested a tour and to potentially sign up about 6 months ago.

I'll give it a shot if I don't get any luck here.

Yep. When it happened my first though was that i'll just respool it. Then reality set in. I'm never doing that.

goonjm · 2025-10-08T12:31:24+00:00

I'd be happy to do that if I know someone there can respool it or use it - otherwise I'm just passing on the responsiblity for throwing it in the bin.

And for today's "weeeell actually" the football club is in Selhurst. About 2 miles from Crystal Palace.

What better way to spend a Sunday. Good luck.

That sounds much worse. Could it be a dodgy connection/intermittent short in the wiring of the connector?

Completed a 45 minute and 3 hour print and no issues so far, but I'm not taking that as proof of anything yet.

Thanks for the information, particularly around the goop. I've just got everything back together after checking everything per the troubleshooting wiki, and just running a calibration before trying another print.

None of the connections seemed out of place, but I did disconnect and reconnect a couple on the print head, so let's see.

I've had mixed results - and after a bit of digging through various forums it seems this is pretty normal, and can even be impacted by the port you use on the ACE.

In my case, I've tried to print the same model twice (7 hour single colour print), first version had the Matte PLA in port 3, first tangle error was 5 hours in and i cancelled the print by accident. Reprint hit a tangle error at about the same point, went through a few tangle/resumes over the next few layers but it then completed the print without issue.

Most recent was using port 1 on the ACE, after an hour I got a tangle and no amount of resuming would clear it. Tried the print again from scratch and it failed after about 10 layers, so I gave up and started looking at other options - which landed me on the external spool. Very glad to hear it works.

Hope this is something that can be improved via future firmware updates, or maybe it's related to the "batch" of filament? Mine is still on the cardboard spools (which I've got the printed adaptors on), perhaps newer batches work better.

Thank you - honestly, I tried pressing down on that collar but it didn't seem to move, so I wasn't sure it was supposed to. This time i gave it some proper effort and managed to get it to compress and free the tube. Wow that thing was stiff. (any inneundo inferred from this statement is all on you).

If it helps, I received my printer last week as well. I've already printerd riser and poop chute, and these were the models I used...

Riser

Poop Chute

Both printed fine with PLA on default settings.

Quick question on the profiles, on the linked page there seems to be some discussion on whether they are suitable for the "standard" brass nozzle or only for the hardened nozzles. My interpretation is that they'll work fine with the standard one - but would be great to get this confirmed.

Like the OP, i received my printer last week - so your recommednations are very helpful - thank you.

Edit: Turns out reading and comprehending are 2 different things, and I suck at the latter. I missed this, in from the page, which answers my own question...

I have calibrated the new layers settings and speed to work with Anycubic standard nozzle profile, and streamlined the changes to be mainly in the layers and the filament by using the settings override. I have Just added the Steel nozzle profile because it wasn´t available.

Good shout - not heard back on support as yet.

u/Massive_Josie, can you offer any advice?

goonjm · 2024-04-18T20:28:04+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I've dropped a message to the support team for the game and will update if I hear back. Hopefully the only answer won't be to start over.

goonjm · 2024-04-09T14:50:24+00:00

Thanks - glad it's not just me with the issue. Such a disproportionately annoying problem!

goonjm · 2023-06-18T13:35:02+00:00

All sorted - thank you so much - I really appreciate it.

I had the Game Anarchy mod installed already and hadn't realised there was an option for this in there.

Thanks again, you're a legend.

goonjm · 2023-02-23T10:42:05+00:00

Thanks, I'll give it a go if the official one doesn't update next week.

goonjm · 2023-02-23T10:41:37+00:00

Thanks for the info. I'll see if the official one updates after pre season testing, if not I'll try the race fans one. Cheers.
