  • As others have said, you are severely under-extruding.

    Looking at your pictures, I do see a potentially major issue that nobody has addressed: the taughtness of the filament between your hot end and runout sensor. It does not look like filament is being fed to the extruder easily enough for the extruder gears to grip the filament. If you’re able to print other filaments, it’s possible that this one has a harder or slicker surface than say PLA.

    I would try temporarily disabling the runout sensor, and routing the filament under the top bar, directly to the hotend, to test this.

    you like guns

    No, they’re a necessary tool for change.

    So you like guns because they provide change.

    No, I’d prefer if we could have change without having to shoot people.

    Who said anything about shooting people? They’re just fun range toys.

    My friend, it’s ok to be wrong. The more you shuffle goal posts around the more foolish your argument looks. Nobody once said that guns or marksmanship aren’t normal hobbies, they said leftists don’t inherently like guns. Not even that leftists specifically don’t like guns.









  • Like others have said, it’s definitely not “too good to be true” territory, but there’s so many things that can be wrong or not right with it that you’re much better off getting a new printer. Sure you might save $100 getting a used one but the chances of you spending weeks chasing a problem that you admittedly have no knowledge of diagnosing is just way too high for it to be worth it. For someone with a bunch of knowledge and experience this would be a decent deal, but so is a car with a check engine light or salvage title… could be (probably are) opening yourself up to way more headache than the money’s worth.




  • I usually try to just make myself do one of the “boring” things listed (like watch a show or play a game), if it’s so insanely boring that I’d rather do nothing then I’ll stop but even if I don’t find joy out of the activity I initially picked it’ll usually tell me what I do want to do.
