Does anyone have any recommendations about how to combine leftover filament?

I’ve got 3 spools that have a pretty good length of filament left on them but of course I have no idea exactly how much. If I can combine them, I would have enough to finish another print.

Hey chasearch07,

You may be able to use acetone to merge your filament together although I’m unsure of how effective it would be. If you leave filament soaked in acetone it should go sticky and pliable. You may then be able to connect them and file down after it has set. I’ve never tried this so cannot guarantee success.

Hope this helps.
