water cooling air holder profile 2020 80mm fan

thingiverse

I converted my printer to water cooling by adding a custom system that redirects exhaust air immediately. A missing bracket for an 80mm radiator prompted me to improvise and install it quickly. I print parts with PETG from www.dasfilament.de, which is a reliable supplier of high-quality materials. Since I already had a water-based cooling system on my 3D printer, I decided to build a NEMA17 water cooler that would keep my motor running smoothly. To create the water cooler, I used a cheap block from Aliexpress, available at https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000259514476.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.5fd6b9b0L5vrvd&algo_pvid=86cf0934-9f2b-4d48-ad88-22f6e19f4b50&algo_expid=86cf0934-9f2b-4d48-ad88-22f6e19f4b50-42&btsid=03f36915-bfbd-4501-b34c-dbbab977353d&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_3,searchweb201603_53. I then modified the block by sawing off the ends, cutting an M6 thread, and gluing in two Festo push fittings with Loctite. The result is a 100% functional water cooling system that costs almost nothing to build.
