Half Stepper Nozzle

thingiverse

Updated:\nReleased V 1.5 following extensive feedback and rigorous testing, ensuring optimal performance and functionality. The earlier version, V 1.0, may still exhibit issues related to overheating or bursting due to excessive heat stress, but your mileage may vary significantly. I'm enthusiastic about the Half Stepper, yet felt strongly that the nozzle design needed improvement - particularly in its tendency to emit airflow downwards rather than focusing it towards the nozzle for enhanced filament cooling upon release.\nAn exhaustive search revealed a multitude of annular airflow coolers available online, however modifying these designs to complement the FFCP proved difficult and often necessitated a complete redesign or removal of the Half Stepper mechanism. Here is the resulting creation, showcased in its unfinished but fully functional state. For those interested in building their own Half Stepper circular nozzle, I have also made it publicly available on TinkerCad for direct download and assembly.
