Topic: Swapping filament
Apologys if posted elsewhere, I searched with no luck.
I think I have made my first noob mistake.
I loaded purple filament, changed to grey, then printed the rear hole guide bushing and had to remove filament again.
Now .. removed the filament from the extruder by reversing it, I was sure I have seen that posted somewhere.
It would not load the filament again and close look shows 2 piece of filament, one grey and one purple sticking out of the top of the extruder, I can grab one a little with tweezers but it aint moving.
So .. I figure in future I will change colours by snipping off the filament above the extruder and feeding it through, but of course it is also going to leave a loose bit below the drive.
So 2 questions ..
whats the best way to remove and replace filament.
how the heck do I get these 2 bits of filament out from below the extruder drive .. is that a dismantle job ?
