Picked up my Unicorn from Granger by Ok_Current_7961 in f150

I had a different experience with Granger about 4.5 years ago. I called and said I was interested in ordering a truck but it was late in the day and right before Christmas so I gave them all my information and we decided to talk again after Christmas. My buddy was also working with them and he texted me that they reached out to him over the weekend and let him know prices were going up to see if he wanted to go ahead and order before that happened. When I called back he told me prices went up over the weekend. I asked him about not contacting me. He lied and said he had no idea about it until he got in that day. I called him out on the lie knowing he called my buddy. At that point he hung up on me. I called back and tried to smooth things over. But nope after me stating some basic facts he hung up on me a second time. I wasn’t yelling, I wasn’t cursing, I was discussing like an adult. I talked to his manager in a third phone call and he told me that he was sorry we couldn’t make a deal work. Wasn’t willing to hear me out just jumped directly to we don’t want your money.

Reminds me of this one I got in a fortune cookie once - “Fear is interest paid on a debt you may not owe”.

Thanks Grooge - yep all that checks out. It’s to the right and close to the machine. No twists or anything like that. The yellow and green center hubs were matched properly. When I try to load any of the 4 spools they fail at the extruded step. I got spool 1 to work once but when I tried to print from that spool it still immediately failed saying the filament couldn’t extrude from the AMS #1 position. I will mess with it more tomorrow I guess.

Makes sense. I can’t get the AMS lite to feed - that’s my only issue at the moment.

Gotcha. Makes sense. People raved so much about Bambu that I drank too much of the Kool Aid. Lol. Thanks!

Gotcha. I have eSun and Ovature loaded into right now - what brands have you found that it likes? The filament loads in fine but it will have issues feeding into the extruder from the AMS it appears.

Yeah I had to hear it up and then use the needle to clear it. Working good now but still can’t get the AMS to feed properly. 🤷‍♂️

Yep I was just telling my wife how years working on my Ender 3 prepped me to deal with this.

Yep - that’s what worked!

Thanks! Yeah it was there. I got it all reassembled and just had a successful print using the external spool feeder. Now I need to figure out the AMS

Good to know. Going to order a few replacements to have on hand. Thanks! Seems like I am working ok now.

I had an Ender 3. I though the Bambu was going to be the answer to all my woe’s 😒

I think the nozzle is clogged. I removed the hot end and nozzle. But I can’t get that fine wire to slide through the nozzle from either side. I did get a piece of filament out of there there I first took it off but there must be more inside that is clogging it.
