Single Filament Adapter for MMU Setup

<p>Update : sorry I noticed that the M10 thread accidentally was set for M11, I corrected this and reported it as v3 below for all the files. No other changes other then correcting the thread.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I built this adapter to allow me to switch from MMU to just using Single Filament by unplugging the MMU2 and unscrewing the Festo M5 push-in fitting from the MMU and screwing it into the adapter. The Adapter has a M5 threaded nut, you can buy this from Amazon in various packages, I purchased the selection, I also included the heat set insert you can attach to your soldering iron to press it in.</p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08YYGRCBG?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_0WGR9XBZJ0V6H67E0KDC">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08YYGRCBG?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_0WGR9XBZJ0V6H67E0KDC</a></p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09VL41T7K?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_DVHRH3HRDC92SJF9VKWF">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09VL41T7K?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_DVHRH3HRDC92SJF9VKWF</a></p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P2XRCC1?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_QWJQM50X8CGZMKQEFG2V">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P2XRCC1?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_QWJQM50X8CGZMKQEFG2V</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The adapter was printed with hole to fit the press insert, and threaded on the other end for a M10 PTFE Tube quick fit. I used this method because I can then push the PTFE tube through the M10 and butt it up against the Festo M5 to create minimal snagging.</p><p>I run a PTFE tube from the M10 up to the top of the Lack table where I can then feed any filament to it and manually load the filament like a standard MK3 once I power off the MMU.&nbsp;</p><p>I don't like removing the PTFE tube on/off the Festo M5 connector because I find it bends the tube and I want to put minimal distortion to the tube.</p><p>I originally thought of just putting a thread for the M5 to the adapter but given amount of times I may screw/unscrew this I though it would be better to use a brass fitting and keep it clean.&nbsp;</p><p>I disabled auto filament load feature and select load and material.</p><p>Print it on side no support needed.</p><p>I printed using PETG since it will be inside my lack case.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
