## Description
This is a side product of my [top plate for flexible filament for the MPMD](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4093405), basically the mk3's mount solution as a stand-alone.
I has the PTFE tube jump every now and then when printing non-flex filaments with Spconnol's extruder fix integrated and when researching discovered it was originally designed for an inward-mount. Reversing the direction of the screw, as well as giving it a bit of straight distance between the points where there is friction held, should make slipping a lot less likely.
Make sure you print the threaded tube standing up on the smaller side, this ensures you don't have any cleanup trouble while keeping maximal structural integrity.
**note**: i've had excellent results printing the tube part in PETG
## Changelog
* **mk2**; the first iteration would sit a bit lose in the stock extruder plate and some filaments would make it wiggle enough for the ring that was holding it to break off. Th
