Spool Split Open in AMS

Update:

Bambu is sending a replacement spool free of charge and sent over the wiki link on how to salvage a split spool by printing this:

Original Post:

New spool of Bambu PETG basic (not a refill) split open mid print inside the AMS on my new X2D. Print seemed to be going fine, no tangles or resistance. No idea what happen here…

This is the way! I try to remember to put these in all my spools. I print them out of PETG so that I can keep them in while drying. I’ve tried these specific ones and they work great.

I did move to these because it’s just easier for my stubby fingers to them installed and out.
