  • Can’t say how easy or difficult it is to replace the thermistor. Haven’t had the pleasure.

    I don’t know how big “massive” is, but its effects could range from negligible to throwing off vibration compensation/input shaping or worst case being massive enough to cause excessive motion and having the inertia rip the wires apart over time.



  • Move the toolhead high off the build plate to give yourself room to work. Set the hot end temperature to somewhere in the filament’s melt range and let it soften a bit. Use needle nose pliers to gently pick away at blobs of filament, making sure not to damage any thermistor or heater core wires in the process. If you want to salvage that hot end, follow-up with a brass wire brush while it’s still hot, otherwise just remove enough goo to access the screws you mentioned.





  • 5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

    -Matthew 6:5-6
