Filament Feed Issue
Post Body

After working through my bed adhesion issues today, I ran into something else. I tried to make a print and after about 20 minutes, there didn't seem to be any more filament feeding through. I decided to pull it out and feed new filament in. After that, I was able to print more, but again it failed shortly after. I thought it could be something with my file so I tried to print 3DBenchy and it too failed after about 20 minutes. During the print though I heard some "crunching" that I haven't heard before. I pulled out the filament and noticed a gouge in it. I sliced this off, fed it back into the head, and had it auto feed in. I had it auto-feed a second time and then I heard the crunching and no more filament was coming out of the hot end. I pulled the filament out and found the gouge as well as a bunch of small filament particles in the head. I don't believe that it is an issue with the hot end since I can push the filament through without issue. I think there is something up with the feed roller or the pressure being applied to it.

What do I do?

Here are some pictures of what I found.
