And some Clik-Mate connectors and crimps so I can make the cable to put both filament sensors on the one side, and the cable for the fan.

So far $7475.42. Mods: $19.32.

Mods off the bat:

  • Purge bucket with 6x3mm magnets, printed in PCCF. Link

3 days, 20 hrs

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.

7 days, 9 hrs

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.
