Noteworthy things #5

This particular thing is not that applicable to the Morgan design, but handy in other RepRap printers.  It is a 3D printed implementation of the flexible pipes often found on lathes (to transport the cutting fluid to the tool/workpiece).

Ideal for printers with extruders mounted directly on the head.  Adding a small bit more weight and you can have optimum cooling of the extruded filament without compromising the hot-end.

See the Flex Pipe Nozzle Cooler on Thingiverse.
