The idler block is attached to the extruder at the top with two long (40 mm) M3 bolts. The hinged bottom pivots on another M3 bolt (need to cut the excess thread or use a more suitable size).

The important parts

Yet another close-up of the working extruder. The solder which reinforces the copper wire did not show signs of melting from the high temperatures, as it is futher away from the tip, with a large area exposed to the air.

Soldering around the MCU

FSRs held on temporarily with sticky tape.
