Noctua 40mm Nozzle X Carriage Full Assembly (Updated Jan 2019)

thingiverse

Not exactly a remix, but I'll give JackWaterfall credit because I think his setup is well done. My thing is a mounting system to use a Noctua 40mm fan to cool the filament as it is laid by the nozzle. This upgrade lets you replace the existing blower fan with a Noctua high-quality and silent fan. In this setup, I am using the hotend_clamp from the PreviosVersions.zip file he has posted for download. I have not tested the new hotend_clamp he has posted with my Noctua mount. I am using the NF-A4x20 40x20mm fan. I hope this works for you all. Happy printing!!! (Update Jan 2019, now the whole assembly is available here. All parts have been modified and updated to work better and to give the part cooling for airflow.) I gathered airflow info for you all.
