Microswiss Fan Shroud Light Version!

thingiverse

I noticed the design wasn't quite right, so I made some edits to ensure it fit perfectly with plenty of room for the silicone sock and wires. This change saved a significant amount of weight on the carriage, making it ideal for use without a part cooling fan, which is necessary when printing ABS and other materials prone to warp and split. I swapped out the design because the hotend cooling fan in the stock carriage pushes air out of the bottom, causing drafts that can lead to warping and layer splitting. I included step files from my process, with three versions: a fixed original, an edited version with stronger side fins but rough edges, and a clean edition with cleaner looks on the added strength parts. Print this design in a heat-resistant material like ABS, PETG, or Polycarbonate. Make sure to print the fins standing up and add supports under the mounting bracket as shown in the first picture. Be cautious when removing those supports! Pictures of the finished product will be uploaded after I complete printing the Benchy.
