Hey guys, as stated above I have no problems with the filament buffer it works perfectly but when I try to remove the ptfe tubes its almost as if it is stuck. I am pushing the black release ring in. Anybody ran into this, or have any soultions?
Try pushing it in, before pulling out. The little metal prongs dig into the ptfe a bit. Pushing first, while pressing the black release and then pull. Sometimes, I have to push the ptfe tube back and forth a few times before it releases.
To be clear, im not talking about only sliding the spring back and forth. Need to push the ptfe tube in with a little force, beyong the travel of the spring, to get the prongs to release.
This pic is very exaggerated and low quality, but it shows why the prongs get stuck. Green is the ptfe tube and red is the metal prongs. Even though you are pushing the release button, the prongs are stuck in place
