 ### Add heat inserts
+
+Tip here for the heat set that goes above the cutter I would suggest drilling the threads out with a ~2.5mm drill bit. On the hotend holder side below the cutter make sure you flare out the PTFE tube to help guide the filament.

-[thisiscam](https://github.com/thisiscam) has created the ercf_additional.cfg which, once you include it in your printer.cfg should do the work and the modification of the ercf_software.cfg listed below is no longer needed. As I am currently rebuilding my ERCF this is untested by me and thisiscam already announced an update :)

-I use [Happy Hare](https://github.com/moggieuk/ERCF-Software-V3) with my ERCF. So I only tested it with this code. On your running ERCF config you'll need to modify the "_ERCF_FORM_TIP_STANDALONE" macro in your "ercf_software.cfg"

-As I am still testing I am really open for improvements of the Code. As I have no drag chain due to canbus the best position for me was in the back of my printer. If you use a drag chain you maybe need to adjust the gcode below to avoid any collision with your drag chain.
