Fan Washers for Tevo Little Monster

thingiverse

I wanted to mount my Tevo Little monster's fan on top of my case to free up more space inside. I soon realized that the heads of the screws pull through the metal fan cage. These washers are perfectly sized to prevent the screw head from pulling through and to draw out the extra-long screw further away from the overall enclosure, which is why they're thicker. Feel free to create your own versions. Inner diameter: 4mm Outer diameter: 8mm Height: 4mm, although I scaled mine down to 3mm just in case. You will need to print four of them. I used a layer height of 0.3 mm with three top, bottom, and perimeter layers. I also used 30% rectilinear infill, but the perimeters made it solid. The inner diameter could be reduced to 3.5mm if you prefer, but I'm not making any changes right now. The photo shows my finished installation. The fan is blowing into the enclosure with the label facing down. The yellow printed washers keep most of the screw out of the way so it won't get caught on wires and other things.
