Improved MMU2 Buffer for Prusa Enclosure V2

The first version of this MMU2 buffer ( https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4138220 ) was a significant improvement over Prusa's stock version, loading/unloading and printing are a lot smoother. I had a 5 days print , with 2400 layers and 2200 filament changes with no MMU failures. But I also had a few under-extruded layers and I've narrow it down to the following root causes and fixes:

1) the 2.5mm Plexiglas on the outer sides can flex. The filament is quite stiff , can squeeze out and ruin your day. Solution: thick printed top and bottom plates, with profiles to hold all Plexiglas dividers in place.

2) there is still some unnecessary friction in the system , the filament can rub against the metal end of the PC4 M6 fittings.Solution: change to PC4 M10 fittings , where the PTFE tube goes through so no metal touches the filament.

So far I've printed a 30 hour Santa , 1010 layers and around 900 filament changes. Perfect print , no MMU or extrusion errors with the new buffer. A 5 days Nefertiti job , with 2400 layers and 2200 filament changes is ongoing.

As always, STEP file included if you want to tinker.
