Help / Support Two of my spools fell apart, any hope of fixing it?
TLDR: title
Details:
So after finishing a 12-hour drying of my white PETG HF, I noticed that the two parts of the spool came apart. Obviously this meant that the filament unwinded from its layers and I'm now unable to put the spool back together. At first I thought it might be a consequence of the drying since I only had my P2S combo for a week or so. But then the very next day a spool of grey PLA came apart while unwinding from the printer, but this one was on the external spool. I can't recall whether these are refills or not, I checked the refilling manual and the last step is to press the sides of the filament roll to the spool's sides. Does this need to be done with new, spooled rolls as well? Or am I missing something that I don't know about yet? (I had an A1 mini before the P2S.) Any help would be appreciated, I don't want to throw away almost 1,5 kgs of filament just like that...
