    Plastic tweezers would be AWESOME !!!
    I've been poking around fiddling with peachy parts with pens, wires, small screw drivers and if I'm not careful, they get stuck on the magnets. Then i have to get the tool out of the printer without yanking things out of alignment. Plastic tweezers. i need to find me a pair.

    I'm also strategizing on how to find out if I still have the second protective layer on the mirrors. I will sacrifice a spare mirror in my research. I'm thinking Q-tips and crazy glue (I don't think that I've loved crazy glue so much !!)

    Dripper Oddity
    Getting the drip system started seems to be straight forward and easily repeatable.
    -(assuming all hoses properly connected) Have the Return hose and the short Purple hose (see pic above) securly crimped with plastic O's.
    -Have your reservoir above the Print container
    -Squeeze the reservoir until dripping starts. Sometimes it quickly stops so a second short squeeze gets it going.
    -Change the height of the reservoir to change the drip speed.
    -The drips stop when the reservoir is empty

    Now...to get the print container to drain back into the reservoir "should" be done like this:
    -Lower the reservoir below the print container
    -uncrimp both crimped hoses
    -watch the reservoir fill
    -Flow stops when the print container water level reaches the bottom of the drain hose (in the print container). The end of that hose should be the same as your print base.

    Unfortunately, the return flow isn't working for me.

    What am I missing here?
