How to clean Nylon out of Nozzle?
Posted: Fri Sep 05, 2014 9:11 pm
I got a .8mm nozzle for my e3d v6 from e3d. I've been printing ok, but the nozzle keeps on getting jammed midprint. You can see here what ends up happening, either nylon sputs out or it stops entirely.

Here is a picture where you can see inside the nozzle. You can see there is only a small hole where filament can freely flow.

So two questions:
1. How to fix this so I can keep printing. How do I clean nylon out of the nozzle?
2. How to fix this so it doesn't happen again?
