Anet A6 Dual-LED Printhead Mount

This LED mount is an absolute blast to print! I've uploaded my printed version for you to see how I managed it. I used a 0.2mm layer height and slowed down the speed. But once you've printed it, the real magic happens! Mount two white 5mm LEDs, connect them to your continuous fan, and voila! It attaches securely to the bottom right screw of the fan, instantly resolving the issue of nothing being visible behind that part of the fan. I was really frustrated with that. I designed it to shine directly onto the printed object, eliminating bounce-back into the frame and keeping a very low profile. Don't forget to include a 390 ohms resistor in the shrink tubing – if you don't, your LEDs will burn out due to the fan's 12V power.
