Anet A8 extruder fan mount

thingiverse

I've been dealing with issues where heat starts creeping up my throat, and neither my fan nor heatsink is mounted due to limited access to the extruder mechanism without a complete teardown. So I found the KISS fan mount created by aeropic, but I didn't want to spend time modding bolts or getting threaded rods. Therefore, I came up with this solution. It simply uses some spare hex head M3 bolts that come with the A8 and mounts directly onto them. The fan slides in and out of its holder while staying firmly secured and directing air straight at the extruder.
