Comments
Ta'a Pyland commented agoIt's worked really well. Before I upgraded to the Metal Plus, it was the last shroud I made for the ol' girl.
Kris Sisk commented agoI've been looking at lots of fan mounts for my Printrbot Jr. This one looks like the most promising out of the dozen or so I found. I was about to give up and make my own when I found it. How's it working out for you?
Kris Sisk added this to the Printer Upgrades collection agoTa'a Pyland commented agoOh, I should add that I used a left over little nut and screw for the fan holder, and four small screws for the duct to mount to the bottom of the fan.
Ta'a Pyland commented agoI designed the fan mount to press fit onto the front of the extruder carriage. It should grip the plywood (it's got little teeth) pretty tightly. I put a drop of Elmer's glue on each jaw before I snugged it up, and they stuck with no issues for a month or two, before I upgraded to a different duct. I'll try to see if I have it and I'll try assembling it again and taking pictures.
Tony Murillo commented agoHow does this mount? Do you have any pictures with it on? I also have a Jr v1 and have been looking for a new fan duct since I added the Aluminum Extruder.
