Introduction

The nozzle is where the M3D's filament is extruded from, so it's a crucial component. If something is wrong with your nozzle, it's likely that your printer won't function properly. Luckily, the M3D Store sells a replacement nozzle that you can easily substitute for the faulty nozzle on your machine. The nozzle is easily accessible and as such, easy and quick to replace.

Do you know where I can source replacement nozzles for this? M3D doesn't have a store page anymore and none of the "standard" nozzles that I've found look like the longer piece that the m3d uses. The one I'm replacing is completely gummed up and stuck on the heating element, so I'm looking to replace both but can't find a source for parts specifically for this model
