Anet A8 Mainboard + 3 Smoother Case

thingiverse

Here's my Case for the Anet A8, it is able to fit three TL Smoothers and the mainboard. There's plenty of vents for cooling, but in case you need more, i've made a place to put the 40mm fan included with the printer at the back of the case, this fan is useless anyway, the metallic mount of the extruder dissipate heat well enough by its own, it doesn't need it :P Oh, you want EVEN MORE cooling ? sure thing, here's a place to put a 70mm fan (cheap AMD processors heatsinks have one) on the cover of the enclosure, pretty rad aint it ? After some fiddling, i managed to make it fit PERFECTLY to the printer ! Putting the 70mm fan cools very nicely the components, the 40mm one should do the trick. If you're wondering where you plug the fan, if you have a fan plug available on your board (by removing the 40mm one on the extruder) then plug it here, else, just strip the plug and put the cables directly to the 12v input of the mainboard, thats what i've done, and its working so far. This case is designed to use mainly M3 screws for the electronic, the cover, the 40mm fan. But it use fan case screws for the 70mm one
