Replicator 2 Active Cooling Fan Mount

thingiverse

Remix of LKM's Replicator 2 Flexion Extruder Fan Mount. This is the plastic piece that everything else hangs on. I never liked the original Makerbot Active Cooling Fan Mount because it was flimsy and tended to fail if the duct accidentally collided with a print, or just from being relentlessly pulled on by the filament guide tube and wiring harness. After patching mine up several times, I saw LKM's design and liked it - especially the access holes for the 2 stock screws. That's when I decided to make it even stronger. I tweaked the mount so it also attaches with both short stock screws into the aluminum mount bar, and added a third attach point by integrating the left cooling fan stand off. I also provided a capture for the cooling fan wires. I had some fun making the swept surfaces and additional gussets for a much more robust mount. T5, because it took 5 trial makes until I was happy with the final fit and finish. Print one now!
