Filament splicing is a weird #3dPrinting obsession, IMHO.
People seem to want desperately to do it: Fine.
However this product makes me angry.
It uses teflon (PTFE) as a _consumable_ to put together bits of PLA/PETG/ABS. PTFE is a forever chemical and this little machine creates PTFE trash every 14 splices.
