Hot End Fan Shroud for Ender 3 / Ender 3 Pro / CR-10 (remix v3)

This is a remix from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:398515 This is a crude remix of BeauSquire's SHROUD_ANGLE_LARGE.stl with the intention being to remove the airflow restriction from the front and yet still retain the abilty to block strings from entering the lower fan. Granted, you can still get strings pulled in with this, but for me it seems to have fixed most of that problem. Unfortunately it looks nowhere as cool as BeauSquire's does. This one is ugly but functional. After having to change my front fan after a whole month, I wanted to do something to reduce the chance of strings damaging the fan bearings. I guess we'll see how this is working a month from now to really tell. All I did here was remove the fins, about 60% of the face of the shroud, and square off the top. Obviously, before you do this, make sure you've done everything you can to mitigate stringing in the first place. This is specifically for the housing on the Ender 3/Ender 3 Pro/CR-10. Printed with .2 resolution, 20% infill, and I actually used a full raft which helped with the support removal. Supports (touching build plate only) were used at an overhang angle of 85 basically so we just get under the top where the fins would've been.
