The main purpose of my modifications is printing more plastic per second since i mainly print functional and/or big parts - and i am impatient

* A mainboard cooling fan
* A stronger feeder motor and a feeder motor cooling fan

* Installed a flowrate sensor to limit printspeed if things get to fast for the feeder/extruder, and to measure Temperature-Flowrate curves.
