Lorei Filament Cooler

thingiverse

I designed a set of fans for the extruder and another for the filament on my Lorei 3D printer. The second fan blows air but unfortunately hits the heater block too, resulting in insufficient airflow to the actual filament. I discovered some filament coolers for the Lorei that replaced the entire fan arm, but I wanted to maintain the external appearance of my printer. So, I created this custom solution! Simply print it and use the same screws holding the fan, positioning it behind the existing one to preserve your printer's exterior look.

You can print it with or without support material; however, it prints better with support. Due to its proximity to the heater block, avoid using PLA.
