I Have lulzbot Mini, bought it second hand used it for a about a year with success. I haven’t used it in 6 months ,and was stupid enough to not extract the Verbatim PLA when I stoped using it.
Today I wanted to use it again, But couldn’t extract or retract filament. When I tried to replace it, the filament broke. Since then everythinh has gone downward. I have tried to push through with small metal tools but that didn’t work. I have tried pushing with a acupuctur needle, blowing with a hair blower. And at last I tried it with a heat gun. I can’t remember weher I read about that. But I think i broke the darn machine, or rather melted it. Also I have probably used toooo high temps in my desperate atempts. 250c.
Any tips for a sad Mini owner.
