Anet A8 Semi-Circle Fan Shroud for Auto Bed Leveler

myminifactory

I had recently installed a auto bed leveler on my Anet A8 with a 5 mm plate attached between the part cooling fan and the extruder. I could no longer use my old fan shroud because the heating block would melt the top of the fan shroud. So I designed this fan shroud that would be 5 mm longer and so that it could reach the nozzle. My first design was a full circle but with a bit of research I found that the semi-circle would preform a lot better. You will want to bump up your retraction settings because there are a lot of places where I got stringing. If you plan on bringing this object into MeshMixer, be warned that it might fill the hole at the top (which will keep all of the air from flowing through the shroud).
