Qidi Tech X-One Extruder Fan Spacer

thingiverse

So... I broke one of the blades in the stock extruder fan on my Qidi Tech X-One. I replaced the 40x40x10mm fan with a 40x40x20mm fan. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075SL6RYQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I used two M3x50mm flat head screws to mount the fan, spacer and heat sink. I think having the fan spaced a little bit away from the heat sink will allow more air flow across more of the heat sink. But who knows. It seemed to make sense to me. Also, it was working just fine before, so who knows if this is any better or not. Tinkering for the sake of tinkering. Printed with "gold" filament from MakerGeeks. The plan is to re-print this in dark gray Raptor High Temp PLA.
