Heatbreak issues

While I was able to find this cool motor that has 2 independently controllable shafts, I wasn't able to find a heatbreak like this one that had a thread length of 5mm instead of the 4mm I've got. I have discovered that the white insulation is likely ceramic, as TriangleLab has this.

This means that while the 40mm nozzles, the supervolcano and the normal volcano + volcano adapter could work, stock volcanoes or v6 + volcano adapter doesn't. 

Spacers and TIM

I'd also need to look into a long M6 tap for the 30mm alu spacers. For now though, 3 9mm spacers could work. I'll see what thermal interface material options are out there for 300C operating temps.

Slime

I'm annoyed that the current Slime concept is around 150mm from the V axis rotational pivot to the front of the Slight. I've also have to think about a vacuum and Slime internal cooling, so I've decided to remove the onboard 6028. Now, I think 100mm is possible.
