Quoted from Lucxor:

Thanks for that. I just was looking for fans on the Internet and found these parts for rc motors. Will order 4 and test if they fit arround the coil. If yes a very cheap and nice mod for only 6 dollars.
I will share all Infos if they really work. Would be great
[quoted image]

Already tested, they fit. I added thermal tape to the inside of the heatsink which makes sure that the heat sink doesn't fall off the coil and promotes more thermal conductivity between the coil and the heat sink. There's some blue thermal tape on Amazon that works great. These work best at 6.3 v.

Quoted from Aurich:

Thanks. It's honestly a pretty amazing time for home makers. We can do so much with our own equipment now. The initial investment can be pretty low, or you can drop thousands on stuff like I did, but really the amount I've spent vs what I can do is still peanuts. And it's super cool what a $200 Ender can handle.
The only equipment I really lack is the ability to print on things. But I think a UV printer is probably something I'll have to do with out lol.

But UV printers are really cool! Just imagine what you can do! And they are soo inexpensive now days. Its the UV ink that costs an arm and a leg...

Quoted from marioparty34:

What is everyone's longest continuous print
time? My son is designing something for school and we started a 58 hour print a few hours ago. I have never attempted something that long. A little stressed that 75% of the way through it fails.
I thought about printing it in pieces, but due to the nature of what it needs to do, we would rather have one solid piece. Fingers crossed!

70 something hours, I printed it high quality and slow, it was tall and used high quality silk filament. First print failed at one day, second print failed at two days but I was able to save it by cutting the gcode at the height it was at. Just don't move the print until it's done if you want to try and save it.

Quoted from Ashram56:

Are you using the integrated fan (which is rated at 5V) ?
Also, wouldn't it be better to use a model with the fan sitting on top, like this one:

Regards

Good question, I tried this one but it was much more rigid than the side mounted fan version. With the side mounted version you have an amount of wiggle room to bend the heat sink to perfectly fit the specific coil thats in the machine. That being said, there are machines that this one fits perfect on (ie AFMR).

Quoted from abovethepin:

Anyone have any luck scanning in an Attack From Mars martian? Would love to print a large version of it.

All in for supporting this idea, keep me in the loop
