This is a quick and dirty Arduino based solution to address filament feed issues.
It monitors filament feed rate and compares against extruder stepper motor pulses and will pause the printer if the extruder tries to print with a blocked, broken or jammed filament. In most cases it will allow the issue to be corrected and the print resumed.
