Snapmaker J1 Bed Cooling Stand

The Snapmaker J1/J1s is a great printer, but one of my biggest complaints is that the bed is very slow to heat up and cool down. The glass bed does an excellent job of maintaining adhesion when heated and releasing when it's cooled down, but I usually don't have the patience to wait for the bed to cool, especially when left in the printer. This stand allows you to remove the bed and stand it on it's end outside of the printer enclosure, greatly improving the cooldown time compared to leaving it in the printer.Keep in mind that this part will be in direct contact with a piece of glass at ~100°C, so a high temperature capable filament should be used. I used ASA and it turned out well. I lost power in the middle of my print which is why there are some surface flaws in the pictures. Note:  Do not remove the hot bed from the printer without gloves!
