Tronxy x1 extruder cover replacement with radial fan mount

thingiverse

I was experiencing some problems with the hotend on my x1 having difficulty reaching its target temperature. The extruder fan is situated slightly higher in this design, which causes it to direct more airflow towards the heatsink than towards the hotend. This modification seemed to resolve most of the issues I was encountering. Due to the radial fan mount being positioned on the left side, it reduces the available print volume, which is why I have also included a more compact x-axis endstop. I have designed a new version of the cover that positions all the fans in a more strategic manner around the hotend. Additionally, I have created versions of both the cover and the endstop mount featuring easy connectors for cable chains: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:11978. Furthermore, I have added two compatible fan ducts that are slight modifications of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1954001 and https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2088006. Note: These fan ducts remain untested; however, I am using a version of the spaceship fan ducts on my own printer but lost the file and had to recreate it.
