I have started printing with Prusa PC blend filament, which is quite a challenge and I have a related project underway that digs into some detail on the challenges and some ideas for success.

Along the way, I had an “incident” that resulted in the extruder on my MK3 to get pretty much covered in molten PC blend … goop. The strength of the material was, in this case, a negative and with some struggle and swearing I managed to clean things up.

I’ve seen some inconsistent extrusion and unusual noises while printing so decided to clean things up and do a deep maintenance after the PC blend issue. As part of that, I
