      Several times on multiple printers, one of which would print fine one day and be thoroughly misaligned the next. Had one nearly as bad as this just a couple of months ago because of a number of factors. Watching the first layer go down won't always do you any good because it sometimes takes fifteen or twenty layers before a print starts to delaminate from the bed.
      Edit: Pliers don't work better

      @@glennbrian3d BL Touch says otherwise on the Creality - as does the fact that the blob there had seeped out of a couple of loose connections. I had to go at it with the heat gun and a few other things for a while, AND use the internal heater a couple of times. And then I had to reprint the custom mount I was trying to test because I wasn't careful where I aimed the heat gun.

    i recently had the same problem on my SIDEWINDER X-2... The PLA melted and encased the wires on the print head so i couldnt pull it down because it would rip the wires off... I took off the entire print head and put the entire head into my FREEZER... I left it in their for about 15 hours until the PLA became so cold it was now BRITTLE... I then took TIN snip cutters and snipped it where i could... the thing cracked in half and came off successfully without damage to the wires... it worked in my case.

    0:29 This happened to me on Monday night before I went to bed and was stuck with it all day long. Spend at least 4 hours removing half of it and still have some more to go. It even prevented my fan from spinning.
    6:58 Why didn't I think of that? I'll have to try that.

    You should add proper working sample of the device you mention on end of your each video and a section of it on intro. This will increase your video watch counts. People like to watch it very much besides your main point.
