Easy print fan mount (Ultimaker)

thingiverse

Print my latest fan shroud design found at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:17602. The shroud is designed for the right side of the extruder head and features several improvements, such as no support needed during print, minimal airflow restrictions, directed cooling beneath the fan housing, balanced airflow to prevent fan stalling, a push-fit design for ease of installation, and glue-free assembly. Additionally, there is a sufficient gap between the shroud and aluminum block to prevent melting. The shroud worked well in testing, but be warned that hurricane damage may affect small items left on the printer bed. To assemble, clean the parts as necessary, ensure the mounting tubes fit snugly onto the extruder head threads, slide the cap onto the front of the shroud, and secure it with the original fan. If needed, pack the mounting holes with filament to improve fit. Happy printing!
