cooling fan shroud for ubitx.

Fan duct for ubitx radio. I was given a couple of these fans: and thought that they would make a nice fan for the finals on an Ubitx radio. https://www.amazon.com/Radial-Cooling-Extruder-RepRap-Printer/dp/B07KHNVXFG?keywords=fan+12v+cooling+fan+3D+printer&qid=1547561527&s=Home+%26+Kitchen&sr=1-6-catcorr&ref=sr_1_6 The case on this radio is an Indian radio case and I had to turn the fan 90 degrees to fit it in. The radio case had the main power switch on the rear panel. UGGGH.... So I put a rocker switch on the front. To ease printing I made the duct in two parts and used a 3d printing pen to glue the two halves together. My printing pen is a Wesen brand and got it on Amazon for less than 20 dollars. Using PLA to weld it, basically welds the two parts together. I wired the fan to run full time. It is a very quiet But created a lot of radio noise in the receiver. Hope your squirrel cage fan is better.
