Filament guide with Hinge for a Fan - Anet A8

thingiverse

Added a brand new version (the black filament parts) that works even better: "new_HINGE2.STL" "new_HINGE1.STL" PRINT THE PARTS JUST LIKE YOU SEE IN THE 3D PRINTED PICTURES, USE SUPPORTS ONLY ON "new_HINGE1.STL" STEPS: 1. Secure the fan screw holes with Cyanoacrylate to fix 4 x M3 nut threads in place. 2. Attach the extruder motor to the extruder carriage using 2 x M3 screws. 3. Cut a small section of the heatsink at the bottom for easy opening access. 4. Fix the fan to the heatsink with thermal resistant glue (FAN DIRECTION: blow air into the heatsink). 5. Print or remix the STL file to enhance your 3D printer experience. 6. Use 1 x M3 screw (approximately 50mm long) and 1 x M3 nut thread for the hinge assembly. DONE! Future Update: To add a hinge for effortless extrusion chamber opening. FILES: HINGE1 AND HINGE2
