Hey, pardon the noob question, I just got my Orion yesterday
Got everything set up for the most part on the software side, but when I tried test printing the blinky coin, I must have screwed something up feeding the filament.
The filament was only about half an inch from the top of the brass ferrule on top of the extruder, but as the knob turned on the filament feeder, after three or four seconds of slow turns it would "sneeze" or "hiccup" and reset -- basically, the filament didn't get a chance to go any farther down into the extruder because the gear kept retracting it.
Any thoughts on what I did wrong?
