    With the aftermarket metal idler arm installed with the bowden fitting screwed in the filament is held slightly off of its optimal angle and is prone to skipping or if I tighten it down enough it will just kink the filament before feeding it down. I swapped the plastic idler arm in to print those large parts with the single filament and as soon as i put the other idler arm back in I'm back to the skipping. I need an extruder i can feed a bowden tube into. I already started down the path of no expense spared with the genuine HIWIN rails and PRUSA MMU2S instead of clone parts so I have resolved this extruder problem in that same fashion and did like I said I was gonna do. Today I have ordered the Mosquito hotend from Slice engineering along with a 24v fan, 24v 50 watt heater cartridge, thermistor, vanadium 0.6mm nozzle, and BondTech BMG-M extruder. I feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside about this new extruder setup and can't wait to change a nozzle with just one hand. This new extruder setup costs more than some printers. But it is fitting and the correct part for the machine I built. Gotta treat my robot right. I ordered my parts directly from BondTech, here: https://www.bondtech.se/en/
