Cooling fan(30mm) mount for 40-42 stepper motor (direct drive)

prusaprinters

I designed this mount to cool of my direct drive on ender5.. I didn't placed it downwards but from the side (will post pics) so I minimized disturbance of air-flow around printing area.. You can also place it on the top if you want It is a mount for a 30mm fan to be mounted on a 42-40 stepper motor. You can glue the motor on.. or use some m3 wood screews - but make sure they are not too long. I connected 24V motor directly paralel to heat break fan and its working fine.. It mounts also on smaller stepper motors as long as they are 42mm acros.. Since motor gets hot somethimes I recomend printing it in something a bit hotter than PLA... I used ABS and so far I have no problems.
