Description
This is a thermal barrier retainer block I designed for my plastruder to replace the stock retainer washer, steel washer & m3 screw stack. I also use this block to mount the plastruder to my z-stage so that's why the block is kind of long. One surface of the block is flush with the back of the plastruder housing and has two M4 threaded holes.

Hey labmat, can I get your email? or just toss me an email at rileyporter at gmail dot com
Thanks guys! The idea was to make the nozzle more rigid and mount the plastruder to my Z-stage, this retainer block does both.
It helps having access to a milling machine; not a lot of people have that luxury. Hopefully someday we can extrude parts in metal. :-D
Plus, it'd work as a huge heatsink in place of the washer!
I like it. Pity it's probably not replicable by most people here, but someday! Someday. :)
