Wanhao Duplicator i3 front blower fan mount and shroud

thingiverse

These parts adapt a blower type fan for use on the front of the machine. The shroud snaps into place and was printed with PET while the rest was done in PLA. NEW VERSION: HEX **** Warning - On long builds I've melted this shroud pretty badly where its close to the heater block. You might want to put some aluminum foil tape or kapton on the inside to prevent this if you are going to use it. I'm working on a redesign. Thanks for your interest. ***** I've redesigned the shroud to have six outlets near the nozzle but pointing down only onto the extrudate. These are spaced apart so as to allow the nozzle to be visible from several angles as well. Plus it looks cool. No pun intended.

The holes are a little small and will need to be drilled out for M3 and M4 screws.
