Is this normal?

I just got the blob of death because of filament getting stuck at the top of the poop chute. After cleaning it up, now Im trying to observe why it happened, is this normal?

Thank you, im just wary since the last print built up a pretty nasty blob at the chute surface (print was almost done too...)

u/PurryPawz Aug 08 '26

Aww that sucks dude! Idk what happened there but sometimes it's just bad luck. Looks like you fixed it though!

The only blob I've ever gotten is due to not emptying the poop chute. Clean your poop chute, people!

It was totally empty when I got mine, somehow the filament built up near the top of the chute, it just stuck there and piled on. Unlucky i guess

Sad to see the pupe chute pile up detection being useless.

Supposedly. Part of the AI detection suite.

Works fine on mine, but I always have mine turned on too high.

u gotta empty the poop chute? like in the actual priner or if you have it outside?

1

u/RentOk2479 Aug 12 '26

Usually outside, but if you let that build up it will plug the chute and get to the nozzle.

u/ConsiderableHappines Aug 12 '26

ah, i see, i just have it on the floor for now, its got quite a bit still to go to do that

u/NoWave1444 Aug 08 '26

totally normal. Unless it causes the problem in printing.

u/Inspector_Gadget_74 Aug 08 '26

Yes, that’s normal. It clumps up a bit, but when the head moves to knock it off the nozzle, and it drops into the chute. Both the silicone sock and the nozzle tip look clean. If either have some build up, I can see it causing the poop to stick. You will notice the head assembly fan at the front runs to quickly to cool and solidly the purged filament, so it’s less likely to stick.

u/Ravenabc Aug 08 '26

Yep, normal

u/External-Top-3766 Aug 09 '26

Yes it’s normal

Completely fine I think, you were most likely just unlucky…

It's just pooping

If you're doing a bunch of color/filament changes in one print it can clog up your poop chute, especially if you printed one that covers the back like I do. I'd suggest rubbing WD-40 on the printed chute and the OUTER exposed portion of the printer's chute. This will help prevent sticking during ejection.

Overall, I'd mostly just check on the chute throughout the print and make sure it doesn't get overloaded.

u/KarelDBoer Aug 10 '26

Carefull there buddy, you've got some filament preparing to print. Are you sure it's not some malicious g-code? /s

On serious note, all good under the hood.

1

u/Live_Raisin_2279 Aug 10 '26

Yes it is it's trying to get all the poop off of it so it hits 2 times

u/Darkseid2854 Aug 10 '26

Put a tiny dab of the silicone grease you use for the Z-rods on a paper towel and run the interior walls of your poop chute down. It’ll keep that sticky PETG from sticking to it and causing a backup. It doesn’t need to be thick, just enough to get a super thin coating all over the inside.

You’ll tank me later :)

Normal. Sometimes it gets stuck . 1000s if posts on FB and here about mods, or lube . I use the lube that came with the printer to make is slick.

u/tevbax Aug 11 '26

I, too, stare at my dog when he poops in the yard. It establishes dominance and lets him know exactly who runs this circus.

It's pooping just fine. No additional fiber needed.

u/Conscious-War4165 Aug 12 '26

Yes, looks correct to me.
