I'll guess it is machined rather than cast ;)

Hi Neotko !
More than 10h following PLA prints now ! the PIB isolator coupler works really well, no any issues,
I cross the fingers that will do the same for the " PIB isolator/heat sink "....

Hi Dark !
It's planned to test other types of filament, time to finish some PLA prints I need to make before going further, I have only one printer . :cry:

One thing that i cannot see is if the screw that prevents the olsson block from rotating still does its thing with your head so it will not rotate when swapping nozzles?
