This is an improved design on the CHEP creality hotend insert
Why use this insert over the original?
This revised insert ensures that your PTFE tubes are as alligned as possible. The allignment is important because if they are not alligned your filament could experience resistance or get cought on the gap in between the inserts. the is a real possibility especially when retracting.
What is the difference?
I designed the insert from the ground up. I didnt change the original model, but i changed the design. I made a new model and made some circles where the PTFE tube can be slotted into.

note: because thingiverse removed the ability to see which model something is remixed from I took matters into my own hands and will from now on post a link to the original designs I remix from. removing the 'this model is remixed from' box not good for navigating, so i hope you appreciate that i put the OG design into the descrip
