Yeah get that out. Remove the bowden at the top of the print head.
1) remove the clip shaped like a horse shoe.
2) push down on the outer ring (the collet) and then lift hard on the bowden while still pressing down on the collet. It helps to use a tool such as needle nose pliers to push down on the collet.
Slide the filament all the way through until that gray filament "nub" falls out of the tube (there's a lever on the feeder if you haven't noticed it yet. Turn the lever all the way out so that you can just slide filament in and out of the feeder easily by hand - make sure to close the lever back against the feeder when done).
3) reinsert bowden - making sure it really seems to be all the way in (sometimes it hangs up on something and you can try different angles until you are sure it won't go in any more)
I'm excited because I've personally produced this showcase event, so if you are curious what else I'm up to nowadays, come check it out and say hi in the chat! It would mean a lot!
