Extruder Cleaner

Description

Oh no! Your print is about to start, and there's a little bit of plastic residue from the last print still on the extruder, and you know it's going to fall into the middle of your print somewhere. If only there were a thin object you could quickly scrape the hot extruder with which you know the melted plastic will stick to more readily than the extruder.

The extruder cleaner comes to the rescue, with a 5mm diameter hole designed to scrape any side of the extruder from whichever direction is most convenient. It will last a while under normal use, since most of the plastic you scrape off comes off of the extruder cleaner easily. But if you destroy it, it was cheap to print.

The extruder cleaner was inspired by a convenient failed print. Because of this, it also comes with a clear label so that no one will will assume it is another failed print and throw it out. This can happen...

This design works in Customizer.
