Re: HELP PLEASE !

Drilling the hotend may be extreme or even unnecessary.
I recently encountered this when I was printing in my PLA settings (doh!)
The point is, try bumping up the heat by about 5c, make sure the extruder tension is sufficient, THEN progress with more invasive actions.

Printit Mason and Printit Horizon printers
Multiple SD2s- Bulldog XL, E3D v5/v6/Lite6, Volcano, Hobb Goblin, Titan, .9 motor, Lawsy carriages, direct Y drive, fishing line...the list goes on
Filawinder and Filastruder #1870.....worth every penny!
