It's Not You. It's Your Filament.
3D printing is a great way to create custom objects, but damp filaments can cause print failures. In this video, we explore the impact of damp filament on 3D Printing and how to dry filament and store it correctly for optimal results. We also demonstrate several different kinds of Filament Dryers and show how to check moisture levels in the filament. Watch now to learn how to get the best results from your 3D printer.
I spoke about the following products in the video:
ColorFab XT is no longer widely available, but their newer HT filament looks great. I have had great luck with multiple ColorFab filaments:

The MakeWithTech channel teaches people how to use desktop technology to create, innovate, and make things. If you are a "maker" and want to learn more about 3D Printing, 3D Printers, 3D Printing Slicers, Computer-Aided Design (CAD), Laser Engravers, or 3D Modeling, this is a place you should visit often. The channel includes additional content about using a wood lathe, woodworking, and programming single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi, Adafruit Circuit Playground, ESP32, and Python. Available reviews are about Prusa, Creality, Monoprice, ANET, Flsun, Fokoos, JG Maker, Solvol, and Flashforge 3D Printers. Slicers covered include MatterControl, Cura, PrusaSlicer, Flashprint, and IdeaMaker. CAD design videos cover TinkerCAD, FreeCAD, OpenSCAD, and Shapr3D. Laser Engravers from Ortur, XTool, and Creality are featured in videos.
