looking for mmu parts

Well knowing how I am, I figure I better print out spare parts. To be honest I have allready broke the mmu three times (the tab of the idler snapped off, Somehow the filament blobbed up in the extruder gear and when retracted the filament it split the plastic opening, and while unclogging it the ptf tube fitting threads snapped.) I also have a suspicion the multiplexer needs reprinted ( the steel tubes are clear but yet the filament will not pass through the second port)

I am able to source everything but the inserts that the m6 bowden fittings screw into. dose anyone know where i can get any of these?

Re: looking for mmu parts

are you unable to recycle the ones in your current setup, surely it is the plastic which has given up, not the brass!
