This extruder/x-carriage has turned into a monster eating up 75mm of my x-axis print space.
I just added the dual fan duct to cool pla parts and what not. We eill see how well it works.
Thingiverse link?
here ya go.

its a nice x carriage its just big
I meant the link to the dual fan duct 
Its in the files on that thingiverse link, I think its name is wentylator_v2.stl
Are you sure? It doesn’t look like the one in the image.
I’m sure, he dosnt show it very well. But yes its the one.
Can you let us know how that duct performs? 2 fans should ensure cooling is nice and even.
My slicer profile put a raft under the fan duct so I have yo sand the first layer, otherwise with the raft layer it rubs the build plate. Not to mention I have a short hot end
Ill let you know how it goes.
@Jeremy_G_WeisTek_Eng I also can’t find a link to the fan duct - also searched for ‘wentylator’ in thingiverse with no success.
If you go to that thing, hit download this thing. It will be in the list of files.
Let me double check he didn’t remove it or update it
@Tim_Rastall @Thomas_T_Sorensen He removed it but luckily I have it
There ya go.
Sweet - Cheers Jeremy
Not a problem. I’ve found it can be quite finicky to print with abs. I’m on my third go around right now of printing it.
My y platform is too heavy for my y-axis stepper so I have to print painfuly slow… I’m going to upgrade to 60oz/in steppers here shortly, that should do the trick I think
That should do it. No way you can trim some weight of the y stage? I assume most of the weight is sheet aluminium or timber? Amazing how much you don’t need while still maintaining a solid support for corner mounts.
The frog plate is burch, with an aluminum mounting plate then the heatedbed and 3mm thick mirrored glass.
Its heavy enough to cause a nice clunking sound when moving back and forth at normal speeds. I also need to extend the frame of the i2 as well.
That will be done when I get the plans and files for the 3DR delta.
Sounds like a good candidate for drilling some big holes in the birch and the aluminium. Before I’d reworked my Y stage, I’d dialled back jerk and accelaration values to prevent slipping while still keeping speeds at a reasonable level.
Ya ill have to try those out. I’m having issues right now with flow rate and speed with abs.
