I've lost several prints due to the filament tangling in the reel. I suspect it is from retraction back to the tightly wound reel (in my case Overture, 6.5mm @ 25mm/s on my Bowden tube E5+).
My 1st thought is to put the reels on a ball bearing roller but making the reel more friction-less is likely not going to solve the issue. Does anyone here have ideas? As you can see it's not a fresh reel and I didn't recently change filament. It worked for several large prints then got tangled.

Thank you,
Phil
