Hot End Swapping

Has there been any thought about creating an easier method of changing hot ends? Would a "QD" type device work? Just a thought,.... I love my printer!!

Re: Hot End Swapping

Are you thinking of changing the whole head or just a nozzle?

Re: Hot End Swapping

A few days ago I saw this forum post with a link to a Thingiverse project for a larger build volume with exchangable head https://shop.prusa3d.com/forum/user-mods-octoprint-enclosures-nozzles--f65/126-build-volume-26-5-cm-build-height-easily-excha-t19412.html I didn't look into the project very deeply, but I thought it was interesting.
