Prusa I3 Extruder Fan Bracket

thingiverse

My extruder heatsink got stripped recently from me trying to tighten the 40 mm fan that is set aside of the heat sink. Rather than me buying another heatsink and having the same problem again, I decided to make my own 40 mm fan brackets for my Prusa I3 (I have the Alunar version but will probably work on all Mk. 1's. These brackets pinch the fan in place by grabbing the fan and heatsink and push them together. It takes a bit of wiggling to get them to fit bus was easy even for a novice printer(er) like me. The "Grips" of the bracket miss the fan blades too so don't worry about that. A simple yet elegant design that works great. Any remixes or constructive criticism/compliments would be greatly appreciated.
