PROBLEM
Filament is not extruding or
sticking to the build platform
properly.
Dremel 3D45 froze before my
object started.
Support material does not
break away during cleaning and
results in decreased quality of
the final object.
Spaghetti mess at end of build.
Part only built halfway.
No filament coming out.
Extruder will not home.
Stringy or fraying plastic layers
on steep overhangs.
3D45 will not find my Wi-Fi
network.
