    my hobbed bolt is not cut even.
    if i rotate it by hand i can clearly see its bad.
    i can feel it same when i manually extrude by rotating gear. every 360deg turn it will go loose.
    i would get it tight at its looses point but then it would get really tight.

    i get filament grinding because of that.
    can u guys sell me another one thats cut even ?
    i cant find any online, they all seem to be too long. in fact i already bought one silver, it has finer threads (not good) and is too long.


    thanks
