Leverage Tube Remover
Since getting the AMS Lite, I've found removing the PTFE tubes incredibly difficult. I've tried several other models, and while helpful, they weren't very user-friendly. If you've had the same problem, this model is a game-changer! It perfectly embodies the saying, "Give me a lever long enough, and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world!"
- There's nothing a lever can't solve.
- In terms of practical use, the "effortless" aspect is almost an understatement. The model is oversized; I even added finger grips, which turned out entirely unnecessary. With the lever, two fingers gently squeeze, transferring maximum torque to the PTFE tube's locking mechanism, easily unlocking the tube.
- It can remove two tubes simultaneously. It needs to be used from the side, but can be installed in three directions—left, right, and front—allowing simultaneous unlocking of one or two tubes.
- Print-in-Place, easily printed on even the smallest A1 mini, no problems on larger printers.
