Printrbot Simple Metal - Fan Shroud with 5mm LED mount

thingiverse

I purchased a small LED from Amazon that fit into my power supply's four-pin molex connectors to illuminate my bot, but I needed a spot to attach the bright light source. That's exactly what this little bracket is for. My initial fan shroud from Printrbot was unacceptably cluttered and refused to print under any slicing settings I used. Since I'm no expert at crafting shrouds, I rebuilt the part completely from scratch. As luck would have it, I found a spot for my new LED. I added holder space for it to fit inside perfectly. It printed out flawlessly on my bot without extra supports, even at super-fine .2mm layers and a whopping 90% infill density. I adapted the pattern of mounting holes and kept the shape but got rid of everything else in between, which might seem like I'm giving up all hope but you know what they say.
