Catastrophic Print Failure
in Improve your 3D prints
Posted
Hi All,
I attempted to print a chain mail item and had a major failed print
Item: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3096598
The small sample print worked fine.
The glass bed was forced out of its holders and moved with part of the print, and as you can see below filled the extruder head with PLA.
These machines are only a few months old.
Glass Bed moved and scratched the Metal bed underneath and back of machine.
Plastic Stuck in Extruder and actual print result.
Any tips on how to clean (Or should I just replace the extruder head)
Any suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated. ?
Thank you in advance.
