Anycubic Photon Exhaust Vent

thingiverse

After viewing a similar design, which required an external inline fan which I felt was too expensive and bulky, I designed this model. The original idea came from Doc Tanner at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2877754 if you want to checkout his. He's much better at CAD than I am. I created this using Tinkercad...and it shows. This design uses a standard 12v 80mm case fan and 4" flexible dryer vent hose. The fans can be found on Amazon for as little as $3. You will also need 4 M3x8 or M3x10 mounting screws as the original screws will be too short to reuse. I designed the mount with fan mounting screw holes but the fan fits perfectly in the design and doesn't really need the mounting screws. You can wire the fan with a standard 2.5mm female power jack for easy removal or hard wire it. Pics are included for wiring points. I was able to access the hard wire points through the vent opening without any more disassembly. The fan will run as long as the machine is powered on.
