      I've uploaded an improved version for the BerdAir type cooling. It only needs support on the bed - I've included sacrificial support for the rest of it.

      Mine prints perfectly in PETG with only minimal support plastic to remove.

        Looks great. With the new easy-print version for berd-air….is this file universal for standard v6 and volcano?

              Hi love your design, could you share the stp/step files ? at least for the "Duct_-_no_accessories_v1.00" part ?

              I'm struggling right now in Fusion 360 with the stl, there more than 45k meshes

                @hergonoway Unfortunately the CAD package I use does not support STP files so I can't do that.

                    @rgn01 I was sad at first because working with this amount of mesh kill my Fusion360... and working from mesh is really not my cup of tea... but your idea of using a 40mm fan made its way into my mind 🙂 I've ended up designing my version from scratch in order to handle 3mm holes for fan with hexa nut lock and working as a shield with berdair support (for original tube size but also 1/8" tube size), so thank you !!

                      @hergonoway that is pretty much the ultimate mount for the effector ;)) would you mind sharing the model? thanks!

                          @hergonoway that looks very good. Sorry I couldn't help directly and save you the trouble of redesigning it!

                            @chipsa82 on the early photos with a blower, yes. The Noctua on the later version is a 40 x 10. I have shared my version on Thingiverse https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2844881

                              @chipsa82 I'll post it on thingiverse in few days, need to rework some clearance for that damn screw under the fan duct 🙂

                              First prototype print works like a charm

                                @rgn01 did you encountered some issue with a noctua? In terms of CFM I mean.

                                I was a bit concerned to the amount of air during first prints. Didn't try ABS or more exotic high temp materials.

                                I swapped recently to adda fan (because 24v) (réf AD0424HB-G7, but ad0424hs-g70 works almost the same) works really well if you managed to find one under 10$.

                                Delta goes BrrrRRRRrrrrrRRRRrrr

                                  @hergonoway No, I've used the same 40x10 Noctua on my other printer with a e3d Chimera printing two colour with ABS and it works just fine.
