    A new lesson learnt.Don't go out with a print running, or the filament will get pinched into the roll ( like a winch rope ) and the print will fail. Grrr

    Well that should be an anomaly not the norm. I don’t think it means you can’t ever go out - else will you never sleep or do one over 16 hours? After all, a 40 hour print is a long time. I had a power failure in the middle of one of mine - such is life

    Yeah, first time it's happened. One thing my printer alleges it can do is carry on after a power failure. Looking forward to testing that. Not.

    Anyone got thoughts on the best filament to print those pesky D1/2 headlight clips? I've been doing a few using PLA, but i'm not sure of the suitability. So far I'm not impressed with the results I get from my printer with PET-G.

    I'm not sure if you found someone but I'm going to be producing some in high quality Nylon that will be an almost exact replica of YXX2777. They will be grey as standard but I also have SUA (saddle brown) and LUL (grey) paint available. Pm me if you're interested.

    What’s your retraction settings?
    And your heat settings?
    Do you have a heated plate?
