Stock Part Cooling Fan Mount for Chimera Ender 5

thingiverse

*** UPDATE 2021-04-17 *** One polygon was missing, causing some slicers to create a blockage in the left cooling pathway. This has been fixed. You'll want the ladichimera_mount_v1.2.STL file from the original Thing. I printed my Chimera mount in nylon since parts of it mount so close to the heat blocks. I'm not using a BLTouch so this was the only part to print from the original Thing; it's a nice compact one-piece mount, prints wihout supports, and is easy to install. This Thing is a fan mount that fits the stock Ender fan compactly to tkrneki's Chimera mount while still allowing enough airflow to cool the hotends. This makes it easy to install a Chimera without having to add any high performance part cooling fans. It does get somewhat close to the heat blocks so I recommend at least PETG for the fan mount. You'll want two M3x25 screws to mount this to the other part. Keep the tiny screws from the stock fan, and also its 90 degree airflow guide; this mount is designed to use the screws and guide. I also tested the Y axis limit with this part installed, and found it still allows a good 220mm of Y build area.
