This fan replaces the stock top cooling fan on the wanhao Duplicator 9 / Monorprice Maker Pro MK1.
It uses a 5015 radial blower, you can re-use the existing 4 x M3 x 12 Allen key bolt/screws...
You'll need an M3 x 25 screw / bolt to lock the blower into position
I've iterated this design 9 times now, there's not going to be any more significant changes unless people request changes due to differing manufacturers of 5015 radial blower fans
This device should allow significantly more airflow over the heat break and to the lower fan
Of the 9 versions I've made, every version after 4 works well on the printer, I've only made minor changes to get to where this one is now.
Pictures attached show the printed V4 version in Gold, V5 in Pink and the V6 in White...There are no fitment differences between V6 and V7 included here, it fits my printer great.
I've included pictures of the previous versions printed, this fitted onto my print head model for virtual tests and also of the type of blowe used
Needs supports, not dense, just bare minimum to do the job.
also recommend a Brim or even a raft for the best print on this one as it can peel up the corner slightly otherwise, unsure why it happens currently, but 6 prints all in different parts of the bed and different orientations, it's usually the front right corner that lifts a little, or the back left
