0.25 nozzle PLA, extruder skips
Printing small parts in PLA with the Prusa Nextruder 0.25 nozzle eventually the Nextruder starts to skip and make clicking noises. Tried Prusament and Jessie PLA, both were dried a day ago. I set retraction to 25 (from 45) and deretraction to 15 (from 25), also set printing speed to 75%. This helped but after awhile the problem still occurs.
Never have this problem with the 0.4 HF nozzle. It appears the small nozzle puts strain in the filament causing the extruder gear to wear into the filament until it skips.
Any ideas?

Check if the nozzle is clogged by doing a cold pull. Is there a reason for such a small nozzle vs a 0.4mm?
