**The example prints are bad overall but** should be considered as a torture test with the worst material possible, not an ideal: The material that is tan in the photos is a very difficult material. Real Flexible PLA is a PLA+ with extra TPU, but this stuff appears to be old soft PLA marketed under that trending new name by ATARAXIA ART, unfortunately. Other materials print pretty well, and this awful material prints better than with any other blower I tried, including using [BlowHard 3000 - JGAurora A5 Cooling Duct](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2757866) by DaHai8 which is probably as good as you can get for the stock blower fan. This mount allows your A3S or A5 to have excellent part cooling based on Creality printers such as Ender 3 which is often used for printing 1/60 miniatures for D&D. This is a 3-part mount for mounting (2) Creality 4010 Blower fans to the hotend of the JGAURORA. You must attach the small ducts that come with the fans as shown in the photo of the installed mounting system (printed in black). See the link under "Requires" below for availability. The 40mm fans replace the single blower fan. Using the mount, the fans are positioned the same way as on the Creality Ender 3. Since the fans are wider than the stock ones: - You **must** clip the included limiter to your x axis motor which pushes the x endstop to prevent the new mount from colliding with the frame. I created this from scratch using my full JGAURORA A3S reference model: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4887038 It is compatible with: - my [Print Head Strain Relief Mount for JGAURORA A3S or A5 Wiring Harness Tube](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4055223) Requires: - (2) Creality 4010 Blower fans (the ducts they include that attach are also required) [WINSINN 40mm Blower Fan 24V, Ender 3 Fan Upgrade 24 Volt Fans Blower 4010 Dual Ball Bearing, Works with Ender 3 Pro 3X CR-10S (Pack of 2Pcs) ](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08R9J189W?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details) on Amazon - (8) M2x15 screws - OR (4) M2x10 for the top ones and (4) M2x15 for the bottom ones, since they need to be long enough to go through the mounting wings of the ducts - (1) stock JGAURORA A3S/A5 30mm extruder cooling fan (the upper one that always runs) - (2) 5-32 screws such as the stock ones, to attach that. - (1) fan adapter and (1) fan splitter (see photos of each), which must be made yourself and then connected to the output power where the old blower was plugged in. I made these using a Dupont crimper and dupont pin connectors (the black ones only) and used the plug from my broken blower to make the adapter. Everything came with: [Hautton Dupont Ratchet Crimping Tool Kit, SN-02BM Crimping D-USB Terminal Dupont Ratcheting Crimper Plier Set with 1550 Pcs Dupont Connectors and 460 Pcs 2.54mm JST-XH Connectors](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B083DRCFRY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1) on Amazon. - OR wire them some other way to the part fan output I am talking about. - again... don't forget to print and attach the included x limiter to the x motor or this mount will mash into the frame. - Your bed size must then be decreased by 10mm in your printer settings in your slicer software so it doesn't go too far the other way either. ## Licenses & Authors - by Poikilos and DodgeTheMachinist - [Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/) (CC BY-SA 4.0) - based on [Creality 4010 Radial Fan Dummy Model](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4397807) CC BY 4.0 by [DodgeTheMachinist](https://www.thingiverse.com/DodgeTheMachinist) May 26, 2020 - so the included fan geometry in the blend file is CC BY 4.0 DodgeTheMachinist & Poikilos (corrected by) It is also based on my JGAURORA A3S reference model, but I'm the author of that so I'm re-licensing the parts here anyway (those parts in the blend file are not under any third author/license).
