Putting the old hot end back in was actually a piece of cake.  Pulled the 
hard ptfe tubeing out of its built-in shark bite, plugged it into the 
old heat sink and held it up to the mounting screws and it came eaxctly 
into contact with the drive gears. plugged it into the guide tunnel 
leading to the gears and it fit closer to the gears than it did with 
their hot end on it. Gears still turn just fine.  So its on and laying 
down bright blue plastic after re-leveling the bed cuz the OEM nozzle is 
about .3mm shorter. Until something else happens, I'm a happy camper 
that needs more sleep.

Short night with the window problem, took me about 2 hours to round up 
the tools to cut a 1" sheet of foam board and get it covered again.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
