I always struggled changing the nozzle on my upgrade Kobra S1 Hotends.
The problem is that you cant hold the Hotend properly. The second problem was that the nozzle is pretty tight from the factory.
I didnt want go everytime in the Workshop to clamp the hotend in a vise.
I came up with the ideo of a something like a handle.
Now you can put the hotend in the handle and unscrew the nozzle from you desk !
You just have to take the heating block and the thermistor off and put it in the handle and you are ready to take it off.
I printed it in petg with 5 walls and 25% infill. I think lower infill and any other material should be fine too.
For the best nozzle change experience i reccomend buying a nut that fits and not the crappy wrench they send you with the hotend.
You need a 4mm nut. I used this one https://www.amazon.de/dp/B001ILAGMW?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title
My choice for the hotend are these https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005008710731089.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.17.78575c5fhm9Zxa&gatewayAdapt=glo2deu
