Walked away from a print this morning and came back to a blob being dragged all over the printer.

The blob of pla was in and around the hot end sleave and just everywhere.

Is this salvageable or do I need a replacement hot end?

Printer is a creality k1

    You may be able to just heat up the hotend and remove the plastic with some tweezers, depending on how much of the extruder of covered.

      This is the way. I’ve smurfed so badly the entire sock was covered. Still trucking.
