Xol HE Mount - NF-Crazy_fanHS.stl feedback
YesterdaysCoffee opened this issue · comments
All these mods I've done on my copy.
-
HS holes for hot-end fan could be 4-6mm deeper, otherwise plastic gets back filled into heat set, deeper holes will also allow for 20mm screws to be pulled snug.
-
The posts for the topmost fan mounts (when sitting on the build plate): This 'wing' snaps easily, due to a smaller layer area at this point.
A small support web has been added, this web needs to be much larger. On my copy I will widen the web in to the HE fan platform and out a good 10mm. Perhaps out to flush with the part fan. -
The bottom most HS post (oriented on the printer) would benefit by adding webbing to close the gap between main gap and horizontal HS socket.
Hi @YesterdaysCoffee, would you mind adding some screenshots to assist with your descriptions?
I am not suggesting the wire channel be moved or the wire splitter mounts be added.
- Hole depth:
These holes are already extended to accept 20mm screws:
- Top "wings" breaking:
That is standard geometry on all Xol HE mounts and it doesn't have issues with "snapping easily". If it is breaking there for you, I recommend to print hotter and slower to improve layer adhesion.
- Bottom heatset holes:
This is also standard geometry for Xol parts, but as the NF-crazy is a lower hotend than most, I will look to see if this can be done without increasing the toolhead weight. From a quick look, this may be possible without changing print perimeter length and may provide some bonus stability. Thanks for the idea :)
