A20T vs A20M

Anyone have experience with both the T and the M? In a semi-production environment the M is a huge PITA! The deisgn of the filament path through the hotend is ripe for failure. I am hoping the path in the T is better engineered. Is the T a viable production printer that will successfully deliver mul...

New A20M with 3D Touch - Nozzle hits bed

Just assembled the A20M, added the 3dTouch, uploaded the firmware to support the 3DTouch and homing or autoleveling puts the nozzle into the bed and the Z motor starts clicking.
