RE: Hall of Shame
I haven't had any really nasty ones (yet?) just some disappointing occasional failed prints.

Eventually, it happens to all of us.
I sure hope not!

RE: Hall of Shame — nozzle camera view
This failed print just happened with my Prusa MINI+ printer by part loosing adhesion short before end of print, followed by "print in the air":

By mistake the video plays 2x faster than real. Tool mjpeg_fps for determining average framerate of mjpeg stream and how to use that average framerate to convert recorded mjpeg stream to same speed .mp4 is described here:
RE: Hall of Shame
Preheat to one material hotter than the material that is blobbed and gently pull away with tweezers.

RE: Hall of Shame
EBMX, it looks like the critical Pinda mount is still good.
I would just heat the thing up, probably to 250-260-ish on the nozzle, let it sit for maybe 30 minutes or so, and then try gently prying the blob off.
RE: Hall of Shame
Thank you. It would not come off with tweezers, I used needle nose pliers.
RE: Hall of Shame
Well, it happened to me this afternoon, but not on the Prusa, on my 'other' printer, which has otherwise been amazingly well-behaved for well over a year since I got it.
I was printing a fairly large flat piece and it broke away from the plate. I was checking it every so often and caught it, removed it while it was still hot.
Then I decided to do a sanity check and print a calibration cube to be sure all is OK, so I wiped off the plate and launched it, came back a few minutes later and what I found is below. (I also grabbed a Real Camera for this one.) 😉
I then gave the plate (glass) a good cleaning and re-applied the Layerneer and the cal cube is now printing normally. (Edit: Finished fine.)

My daughter used to eat crayons. Found strange color pallets in her diaper more than twice.
RE: Hall of Shame
LOL, I think all of us used to eat all kinds of things we weren't supposed to back then! They used to make peppermint and wintergreen flavored library paste when I was a kid!

I have done that on all printers I own and often end up with a Jaba the Hut-like figurine.

Here's an amusing one. First failed print in a long time.
I had two small brackets to print today. First one printed just fine.
I wiped off the plate and launched the second one and came back and here's what I got.
I heated it up, gently removed it, extruded a worm to be sure all was well, and re-launched the print.
It's printing now, normally.
(Yes, I know the thing badly needs a good clean-up and blow-out.)
