## History
2026-08-14: I had a clog / blocked filament in toolhead 1, for some reason it was above the hotend, and prevented med from pullking the filament out. I fixed it by dissassemblin the toolhead enough
 so I could pull it through the extruder gear instead of back. assembled the toolhead again. The printer is printin now.
