    Im still experimenting with my R2 and thought I would print chips to support the PLA guide tube to the power cables to the extruder, or so I thought. I found a file on the USB stick that I thought was right, but after 2h I got this. Any one know what I printed and where and how to use it?

    I did have the clips as "Filament_Tube_Clips.gcode". No idea what you printed. How is it called?

    Looks to me like the code got corrupt? I remember mine having a raft on the bottom, and the three clips on it. If I squint really hard, I can kind of see the three clips in there somewhere. But it looks like another raft was added on top somehow.

    Is there anyway to pull that g–code in Cura and visualize what it thinks it should be printing ?

    Interesting, it looks like they screwed up in the latest update, the "Filament_Tube_Clips.gcode" from it is nothing like what same name was on previous version. Who knows what that part is, looks like a cover or something with lots of support.

    I've attached the original below.

    Yeah, in the release notes there's this: "Improved print quality for Filament_Tube_Clips."

    Guess someone threw the wrong file in by mistake...
