Can’t say how easy or difficult it is to replace the thermistor. Haven’t had the pleasure.

I don’t know how big “massive” is, but its effects could range from negligible to throwing off vibration compensation/input shaping or worst case being massive enough to cause excessive motion and having the inertia rip the wires apart over time.

Move the toolhead high off the build plate to give yourself room to work. Set the hot end temperature to somewhere in the filament’s melt range and let it soften a bit. Use needle nose pliers to gently pick away at blobs of filament, making sure not to damage any thermistor or heater core wires in the process. If you want to salvage that hot end, follow-up with a brass wire brush while it’s still hot, otherwise just remove enough goo to access the screws you mentioned.

105 USD. Look at the bright side, you can save 8% by buying the equivalent amount in samples!

If they had done this 6 months ago, I would have probably picked Unraid. I hated the idea of using a USB boot device, so I went with TrueNAS instead.

I think you meant to say glo’al stop

Just want to draw attention to the background for those with a lack of attention to detail.
