Just one more question. I see you like the BMG style. I have been using the red dual gear metal extruder. Do they work well for this application or should I purchase a BMG clone?
The Red Dual Gear model works good as long as you can get the PTFE filament to connect to it and that really depends on the geometry of the printed coupler to it... the BMG has it built in so no messing around getting it aligned is needed... it's always aligned out of the box. In my opinion, it's well worth the $15 it costs and has a lot higher torque than the red ones.
