    Very clever, added to the sticky list of mods.

    most machines that do that (that I own) i actually undo it and let the bowden tubes hang free. Can cause some very odd stuff now and again. Looks nice though!

    At least with the Robo they are not real bowden feeds (unless you did that with a second extruder like I did). So the extra backpressure is not a crisis :)
