Volcano Upgrade Walkthrough?
Hello, has anyone found a comprehensive list of what you need to do when you install a volcano hotend on the MK3?
There are options to print new hotend parts, and those have been posted. However my hotend is broken so I need to take the path that looks like, IIRC:
1) learn how to recompile firmware. I think there are instructions on compiling on the github, and this video seems to show what needs to change: (27) How to Compile Prusa Firmware (3.7.1) and Make Changes - YouTube
2) install the hotend
3) someone mentioned tweaking the PINDA.
It would be cool to see all of this information put together, does such a resource exist?

Before going too far down the path of modifying your hardware and firmware, I'd suggest checking out the 3D Solex nozzles. There have been a few discussion on this topic here, here, und here.

So yeah I've already bought the volcano. This is a post-purchase question 🙂 Due to a variety of factors, I was purchasing replacement hot end parts anyway.
I was hoping that somewhere someone had documented all the steps they took. It sounds like nobody has a link that they know and trust. The information all seems scattered.
