LGX Video Guide

This is a Bondtech Video Guide focused on the LGX extruder.
Take a peek inside, learn how to use it and how to install the different interface plugs that enable the LGX multiple applications.
Use it as a bowden or as a direct extruder with Slice Engineering hotends.
The LGX is compatible with Copperhead screw-mount; Mosquito; Mosquito Magnum; and Mosquito Liquid.

This video guide also includes how to install the LGX For Flexibles Set to create a short filament path print head optimized to print flexible and soft materials.
*************************************************************************************************
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
*************************************************************************************************
There is a miss on this video guide that will be corrected soon. To use the Direct Drive Interface Plugs with Slice Enginering hotends it is recommended to use a PTFE tube between the extruder and the heat break. Info on how to install it will be posted as a new video. Below is some useful additional information:

PFTE tube lengths:
Old Mosquito and Mosquito Magnum : 10 mm
New Mosquito and Mosquito Magnum : 11 mm
Copperhead screw mount : 30mm
PTFE tube should be cut straight on both ends.
Slight chamfer inside is recommended, but not mandatory.
