Support and Fan duct for Solidoodle 4 (with new extruder)

thingiverse

The upgraded air flow system consists of a robust duct and mount for the Solidoodle 4's cutting-edge extruder component. This innovative setup provides a versatile mounting solution, allowing users to attach an assortment of instruments (e.g., gauges) with ease. Currently, refinements are underway to optimize performance as the airflow remains insufficient and poses a threat of thermal damage due to the duct's proximity to the hot end during prolonged use. Anyone familiar with 3D design or air flow mechanics is invited to share insights on enhancing this layout for enhanced functionality. Assembled Parts and Guidelines To construct the upgraded system, two M3 screws and two matching M3 nuts are required. Installation begins with the fan positioned within the duct prior to combining it with the mounting support structure. A secure clip ensures the assembly stays in place once attached to the extruder.
