Three teabag types were purchased online (Amazon and AliExpress) or in a local supermarket. The online-purchased teabags were ordered empty (with no tea inside) and with a known polymer composition
The third teabag type (sample 3), bought in the supermarket, was a regular tea brand of green tea
300 teabags were transferred into a 1 L beaker (pre-washed and sterilized) containing 600 mL of Milli-Q water at 95 ◦C with constant stirring (750 rpm).
It sounds like they were using a magnetic stir bar rather than a spoon or rod but still, 300 teabags, most of which coming empty from Amazon or AliExpress in 600ml is ridiculous.
I’ve a massive blob like this one time when the nozzle got clogged and the extruder created enough pressure to push the filament through the threads of the hotend block. It was on an Anet A8 and I ripped a lead off the thermistor trying to get the plastic off so I ended up replacing the entire hotend.
You can try to heat up the hotend to a fair bit under the melting point of the filament to where it’s soft and somewhat pliable but not runny or sticky and then trying to peel it off. Though you’d risk damaging any leads to the thermistor, heater, or your hands if you’re not careful.
Good luck on fixing the printer and getting back to printing again. 3D printing is a really time consuming hobby
I’d place the blame more on businesses and dumb managers keeping them afloat since they still think Intel is the best bet for their computers or they’re stuck with Intel due to existing contracts. After AMD came in and bitch slapped Intel with Zen, a lot of the community switched teams and went over to AMD for CPUs but most businesses haven’t yet.
It was. There’s a partially working Linux build available and it looks like they’re trying to port to windows too
