Made a longer wire/connector so the right filament sensor can be moved to the left side. Swapped about half of the toolheads over to lighter printed parts.

Feeding 95 Shore TPU through the side filament sensors is a nightmare, and it also seems to be hard enough to pull through that it stops extruding on 2/3 of the long TPU prints I try. Bought some magnets for the filament sensor modification for $19.32. Ended up doing away with the side filament sensors altogether and I haven’t missed them.

No issues, outside of forgetting to re-run the tool offset calibration after changing a nozzle and then wondering why one of the colours was causing a jam – that nozzle was lower than the machine expected so it was smooshing it’s nose into the colour below it and preventing extrusion, which eventually caused a jam.
