Printing on my Tinkerine Ditto Pro , and I decided to try some new, very cheap filament as I was doing some bulk printing and wanted to keep costs down.
The very cheap filament was the cheapest on Amazon, and had surprisingly OK reviews for what is half the price I normally pay.
The filament in question was BQ F000156 Easy Go PLA, 1.75 mm, 1 kg, Bottle Green.
Came back after a few hours to this monstrosity. The big blob had tangled itself in with a load of wires and left green s**t everywhere. Particularly the thermistor wire leading into the hot end.
Have managed to get most of it off for now, but the printer is definitely acting a bit weird.
I'm currently printing a benchy with some Amazon Basics filament, which is another, recent cheapo filament purchase and it seems to be going okay - but I feel like the hotend is running a bit hot, so I might have to take the whole thing apart and give it a good clean.
The Tinkerine Ditto Pro is a great printer, but it sucks that it is so unpopular because there are no spares or upgrades for it except from Tinkerine. A new hotend for this printer would be almost as much as getting a brand new Ender 3, and they don't sell any of the wiring or components for the hotend separately.
Print pla. Amazon basics, here is a link to some I just bought the other day
