Topic: HELP PRINTING PLA! :)

Hello, I recently built a filastruder 2.1e for Christmas, along with the filawinder.  I'm trying to extrude PLA.  I power my filastruder to 187C for around 20 minutes-half an hour and then turn on the motor and toss In my pellets, yet every time it bogs down and the barrel starts to turn!  I have to take the nozzle off and clean out the end of the extruder just for the motor to start turning again.  Does anyone have advice for achieving success when printing PLA?  Much appreciated, thank you!

Re: HELP PRINTING PLA! :)

WHen the barrel starts rotating, how have you fixed that problem? Do you disassemble the barrel again?
