Once the filament is wet can you still save it by drying it out? With this work with tpu too?

[-] Player2@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

Yes and yes. You can either get a specialized filament dryer or do it at extremely low temperatures in your oven (look up a guide for this first)

I really advise against oven. Most cooking ovens aren’t precise enough to stay below glass transition temp.

It's definitely risky, but I did do it successfully in a pinch (have a dedicated drying box now)
