Anycubic i3 Mega - Hotend cover with BLTouch mount

prusaprinters

<p><strong>TL;DR:</strong> This is the Hotend cover from sparky0815 with added BLTouch mount.</p> <p>Soon after getting started with Anycubic i3 Mega, I realized that the default part cooling fan was only effective when printing left-to-right, much less when the head travels right-to-left. I tried some different fan ducts and complete head assemblies, but they seem to actually worsen my prints.</p> <p>Reading good reviews, I decided to try this: <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2850837">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2850837</a></p> <p>But I had BLTouch mounted in the front of the nozzle, so I needed to move it away to make room for the duct. Not finding anything ready, I took sparky0815's head cover, which I like the clean design of, and added a small platform to mount the BLTouch on. It worked well, so I'm sharing it.</p> <p>BLTouch offsets I measured are X=14 and Y=-45</p> <p>Thanks again to sparky0815 for the nice cover and to H_Run for the very effective cooling duct.</p> Category: 3D Printer Parts
