Hello, After quite a few dismantleing of the Extruder for failt Filament changes, i was fed up. :-( A new solution for this Problem must be found. And i have see the new Anet A8 Plus. There have a new extruder Cooling solution with a small heat sink. The old Anet A6 / A8 have a big head sink. Something can be done there :-) Here my new solution for the Extruder cooling Fan. You need: Update the Cabel Chain Holder to -> Extruder end New (from me) 40mm extruder Tube Drilling Maschine Driller 6mm Driller 4mm Pen Extruder Fan Holder (Print before) M3 Screw 20mm 2x (for the Extruder) M3 Screw 16mm 4x (for the Fan) M4 Screw 16mm 1x (for the Extruder) Step1: ( Pic 001 to Pic 005) Print the Fan Holder Step 2: (no Pic -> Sorry) Dismantel the extruder Step 3: (Pic 006) Assembel the extruder M3 Screw 20mm 2x Step 4: (Pic 007) Assembel the Fan on the new Fan Holder M3 Screw 16mm 4x and attach it on the Extruder Holder with the lower Screw from the other cooling Fan Step 5: (Pic 008 to Pic 010) Place the Heat Sink on the Extruder Holder and mark the drill holes.
