Re: (Edit) Really bummed....

Nice of you to make those edits. You aren’t the first person to get a bit overheated when the printer first arrives and things aren’t going quite as planned.

(Edit) Really bummed....

My filament would not extrude at all. All I got was a loud clicking sound. I double checked my temps (220 degrees) and even removed ...
