The file 'Nozzle Cleaning And Removal Tool 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 579.9KB.
This tool serves two purpose:
Remove printer nozzle
Guide acupuncture needle to clean the nozzle passage
M7 socket with ¼" square opening is required for E3D nozzle.
The metal socket allow the tool to be used with nozzle while it is still hot. But be careful that the socket doesn't gets too hot that it melts the plastic part.
The tool with the socket guides the acupuncture needle to clean the nozzle from underneath.
The printed needle hole size may differ depending on the printer. So you may need to try a few different ones. For me, I used the 0.6mm stl model to fit the 0.3mm acupuncture needle.
Note: It may be difficult to insert the acupuncture needle into the tool initially. Try inserting the needle from the nozzle end first.
