REMEMBER TO TIGHTEN THE THUMBSCREWS for the hotend.

I was printing my second large GNOME.  

The Thumbscrews were not properly tightened. So the Hot End fell INTO the print after it was about 2" tall. 

The printer shut down and gave an 'overcurrent' error.

Once the print head was retrieved from the melted plastic, it recovered well.  

But it is probably a good practice to verify the thumb screws are tight on a regular basis.
