About this print
A fan duct holder for E3D V5 and V6 hotends on a Prusa I3 style printer, available in single and dual fan configurations. It is designed to support 40mm fan ducts and direct cooling airflow towards the printed part, with a mirrored duct version available for dual setups. This is a printer modification aimed at improving part cooling. PETG is a sensible material here, as it tolerates the heat produced close to the hotend.

This version of fan duct is not yet tested.
Needs 4 screws M3 25mm long
2 fans 40mm left/right
1 fan 30 mm central
You might need also a zip tie in order to hold the hole system to the e3d barrel.
I am pretty sure that this version will work extremely well.
If you test it let me know in the comments below.
