After taking the printer apart numerous times, cleaning it, adding new parts (hot end, sensors, extruder, bowden tube nozzles), wasting a lot of filament, changing filament constantly, searching countless videos on why my print head would stop extruding after a few layers, increasing temps., cussing constantly, turning fan off, I finally saw this video. I literally have spent days troubleshooting this problem. And it was this simple. Wow! Thank you!!!!!! Honestly i was about to buy a new printer.

This was me for 2 weeks 😂😂😂

Spot on description to the trouble I am having with a replicator 2 I just inherited. THANKS!! you nailed it and saved me a boatload of frustration. 👍

This exactly described my problem as well as all the things I (incorrectly) tried to do to fix it.

Definitely surprising how good an insulator a thin layer of dust can be. That has been a problem for me a few times. Good tips! And love that 3DSolutech translucent green filament.

Dude you saved me from going mad. I had the perfect printer (ender 3 v2) .It printed beautifully everything. The last 2 months everything went downhill. I tried everything. Over/under extrusion ,retraction settings ,wipe distance, z hop , different filament , raising the temperature ... Everything went to normal by lowering the temperature to 195, printing faster and changing the damn fan that was starting to fail. Thanks for the video.

very helpful video! thanks for explaining it to us beginners!

Thanks so much! I'm getting ready to head home and put these tips to use

Awesome tip, thank you for sharing.

I literally feel like your reading my mind and you’re watching me, you described every single issue and fix I’ve had and tried, I’m scared

Awesome video, super helpful!

Well explained, thanks!

Been subscribed to this dude for like ten years 🍻

Happy to help

i just got an x2 sidewinder like a week ago, already have this problem.. its still extruding, but very slowly and my prints are coming out super soft. So its not a total blockage, which is why i didnt notice it right away.. I will try this and hope it works, thanks for the video..

Good video ☺️

Looking at the same problems with my printer and thinking about ordering thermal paste but wait there is defo a layer of dust on mine. Any tips for cleaning the heat sink before I try with some water, microfiber and cleaning wipes?

With this issue does it make your print head clicking noise when it moves

My silk fillement starts fine about half way through my print fillement stops coming through will this be heat creep?

I wish I saw this video 3 weeks ago I have been so lost and replacing parts just cleaned my printer and lowered temps and I'm printing now I'll update you if this fixed my problem!

Awesome. Glad you figured it out. It's quite the mystery.

Glad you figured it out.

I bought a new hot end kit and had the same heat creep problem, before knowing what’s heat creep, i guess I have a cooling fan problem, has to be it

I wish I've found this video a week ago!

Heat creep is definitely a mystery for sure.

Here in SunnyZona heat creep happens on 110° day when your underwear creeps up giving you a wedgie. Sorry not enough cofefe, coffee today.

I have heat creep on my brand new ender 3... and on my upgraded one with an all metal hotend, even after upgrading the fan. this tpu claims 220-240.. i'm printing it at 205.. STILL GETTING heat creep.

Same thing with my second ender 3 as well. Straight out the box and stops print after 10 minutes due to heat creep. Just clogs up the PTFE tubing. Same settings as my og ender 3 that prints perfectly.

​@Jacobsideways64 what was the solution???

I like the way you talk so energetically

Is this MC Chris's uncool cousin?

How did u know I took apart my printer 🤣🤣🤣

cameraman: so you want to do a tutorial closeup, how close? this dude: yes.... i got lost 90% of time in his eyeballs man is gorgeus lmao no homo...

Very rare these days it's more retraction that stops a print too much or too fast of retraction speed

Hi. Thanks for the informational video. I am experiencing the same problem of heat creep and its really getting frustrating now. Can i get a direct contact of yours like an email id, instagram, or whatsoever, where we can chat one-to-one with each other in more detail about the problem?

Just keep at it. Most likely it's the insulation around your hotend. Make sure it has a sock, or gasket around it. This is what I've found.
