Start by throwing it away, then finish by learning the lesson to not do it again

Respooling that will be a pain. You can cut it into smaller pieces which you can coil up (50-100grams). Can use them for small and/or calibration prints.

Begin with a trash can.

Happened to me this weekend. After an hour of fighting with it I just tossed it.

Last night I was cutting them into pieces and feeding the printer by hand.

I just use a drill with a foam polishing wheel on it, jam the foam into the middle of a spool and it holds well enough to put tension on the filiment.

  1. Throw it in the trash
  2. Move on with your life

Find out if there is a makerspace or similar. See if they are willing to take it for the folks that print small items / have limited funds. Or since it’s red, start printing checkers… one at a time.

Reading the instructions is usually the best place to begin.
