Using Bambu dual silk without shredding?

[Ambrosia]

I think that the filament is eliptical and that’s why it doesn’t work. I thought it might only affect the A1 so I’m interested to hear that it seems to be unprintable on an X1C as well.

Are you able to measure the filament cross section with calipers please? And post the smallest and the largest numbers (should be at 90 degress to each other)?

Here is the thread about problems with this filament on the A1:

My A1 Mini won't load Bambu dual color silk with oval cross section

I have two of these spools, and my A1 couldn’t feed either. I did some science and can confirm it’s highly eliptical. Both of the colourways I have are very similar, so it seems unlikely it’s a batch issue. I’d be very interested if anyone has any of this filament that doesn’t exhibit this issue, or has printed it (in a multicolour AMS print) on their A1. [elipse] I’m specifically saying “in an AMS print” because if you’re doing a single colour print, you can often coax the filament into the…
