thingiverse

This is a simple adapter to mount a 50mm radial blower onto a 40mm axial fan mount, providing a straightforward solution for upgrading the cooling system on a Monoprice Maker Select V2.1. The design involves creating an adapter that effectively connects the two components. To assemble this adapter, it's best to use a material with high heat resistance. This will help ensure that the adapter can withstand the temperatures generated by the blower and printer operations. The adapter is designed to work with a 40mm axial fan mount, which makes it easy to install on the Monoprice Maker Select V2.1. The design of this adapter has been tested and found to be functional, although it may not be aesthetically pleasing due to its somewhat hackneyed nature. Nonetheless, it provides an effective solution for connecting a 50mm radial blower to a 40mm axial fan mount on the Monoprice Maker Select V2.1. Update: The latest version of this adapter has been modified to accommodate the specific needs of the V2 model, which includes a small notch that allows for clearance when mounting the arm pointing upwards on the printer. This modification enables users to easily install the adapter without any issues. Important Note: Before assembling the adapter, it's crucial to measure the nozzle of your blower to ensure compatibility with this design. The recommended dimensions are 19.1 x 15 mm. If your blower has a different size, such as 19.7 x 15 mm, you may need to wait for an updated version that accommodates larger nozzles.
