I like the way it keeps the hot end secure. The Mk5 is kinda iffy with the swing out arm which is convenient to remove the hot end but I like the methhod you have of screwing it securely in tight.

Also, mainly, it would be simple to draw in an extension of that piece to form a guide piece that would serve the same purpose as your piece of PTFE.

I recently had a clog in both. I have uncleared the clog but now after I start a print the filament jams up and wont keep feeding into the peek. Sometimes it happens right away and sometimes half way into a print. Can anyone help. My wedding is next week and i need to print out 6 beer bottle openers still in octave lime green filament. If someone could help me clear up this jam or help me print these out I would be great full!!

Here is an example of what I was printing before the madness happened. I did manage to print 19 of them so far.
