DEPRECATED - B3 Innovations Pico Extruder fan shrouds customized for Type A Machines 2014 Series 1 (G1)

thingiverse

I have archived the old design and posted my new and improved "thingy" here http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1477168. To upgrade my prints, I merged elements from other fan shrouds on Thingiverse to create custom designs that fit the B3 Innovations Pico Extruder mounted in my Type A Machines 2014 Series 1 (G1). These may need adjustments later, but they've worked well so far. Photos show an earlier flawed iteration. I printed these shrouds in ABS to withstand high temperatures. They attach with a single screw and mount directly to the Series 1 G1 mount. So far, these shrouds have significantly improved my print quality and success rate - no more jamming! The files Upper_Shroud.stl and Lower_Shroud.stl are ready for printing, while Shroud_Assembly.stl is for demonstration only. Mounting holes accommodate 40mm fans like those included with Pico extruders. UPDATE 8-3-15: I added a new "Upper_Shroud_3.5_fixed.stl" file that includes space for the flex insert from this post on TAM's forum: http://forum.typeamachines.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=620&start=10&hilit=insert. UPDATE 9-16-15: I fixed some issues with mounting holes, but these shrouds still need further work.
