+1 on Jeremy's advice re: using paper feelers to set known offset & not
cutting the nozzles.

Before shimming though, consider the possible causes: IIRC, makerbot
nozzles are threaded onto an M6 stud, with the plastic passageway drilled
through lengthwise.

Check to make sure both nozzles are seated full depth, and not bottomed out
on a burr or threads cut too short.

Which surface is the nozzle designed to "bottom out" on?
