QIDI-Max modified Hot End for Micro Swiss

thingiverse

UPDATE: Recently, some ABS filament started slipping in the gears of the extruder and I fixed the issue by replacing the spring. So, I was having problems with filament jamming on my new QIDI X-Max High Temperature hot end. It's possible that all I needed to do was raise the temperature or change some settings, but I bought a Micro Swiss hot end, found it to be 5.3 mm too short, modified the part that this design is based on and have since gone through several rolls of filament, including carbon fiber PC and Nylon X, as well as ABS. I made four variations. I'm using the one with the Capricorn sleeve that needs to be trimmed around the gears. I'm doing this for three reasons: abrasion and because I was worried about melting the plastic I printed it with. In fact, I was so concerned about melting it that my first print with my ABS version was a poly carbonate carbon fiber version. However, the heat break in the Micro Swiss works great.
