Remixed the original to make the hole functional for nozzle back side cleaning too!

I printed the original and can say it works well and prints fast but I found myself needing a way to get the filament boogers off the back side of my nozzle too. So I made this remix to make the handle hole useful.

You can use this just like the original with the front V for nozzle cleaning during warmup and the side combs as well but when needed, just flip it around and place the nozzle in the middle of the tear drop opening and gently pull it across the back side of the nozzle to remove those pesky back side boogers too! Now the back side of your nozzle can stop being jealous of the front and sides!

I like to use the front V to get the nozzle mostly clean and remove any large clingers during warmup then flip it around and clean the back side. This prevents getting any longer pieces stuck as you try to pass them perfectly through the tear drop. 

Happy (clean nozzle) printing!
