Caution about first nozzle change

Heads up, if you try to remove the front of the extruder to access the nozzle, it turns out a screw from behind is a bit too long and taps a small hole in the back of the front plate, gripping it firmly. I had to wedge in the flat screwdriver to pop it free. You need to widen that pit some to put it back easily. I'm 99.9% sure I used all the correct screw lengths so you will probably run into this. Of course you don't have to pull that, but make it easier.

I confirmed that the instructions call for M3x30, but parts only need 29mm. So the screw will countersink into cover as shown.
