Nozzle swapping difficulties - screwing into heating block
I recently bought a 0.6 mm E3D high flow brass nozzle, and I'm having trouble with changing it. I printed the official tool for easy removal, and while I could remove the old brass nozzle it was tougher than I thought, the force required resulted in the PLA tool making a cut into the silicone sock.
Now I can't get either the old nozzle or the new nozzle into the heating block, the force required after a while seems excessive. So I wonder if I have stripped the threads on the heating block or something else is wrong?
Cheers in advance
