Excited to try this out, don't think I am getting the right results with the other tool I have.

So, I offer up the same model, but with a built-in power brim, complete with little re-bars to help stop any of the brim from pulling away from the bed near the tool itself. Print this file as-is without any brim or raft (just a one-line skirt if you need to pick something). For me, this has been very effective at preventing the tool itself from warping, even with the NylonX.
