Mendel Stepper Cooling Fan Brackets
Description
These Brackets Allow You To Mount A 40Mm Fan To A Mendel. My X,Y, And Extruder Stepper Motors Were Getting Quite Warm Especially During Long Prints. I Turned Down The Current Limit On The Pololus After Realizing That The Makerbot Motors I Installed Were .4 Amp Motors And Not .84 Like The Ones Currently On Their Site. Even After Adjusting The Current Limit On The Stepper Drivers They Get Warmer Than I Care For So I Designed These Brackets To Mount Some 40Mm Fans I Found At Radioshack. While The Motors Would Probably Be Fine These Gave Me Something To Print And Install And Also Allow Me To Keep The Current Setting Set A Little Higher Than The Stepper Rating And Still Run Them Cool. These Brackets Are Designed Around A Sells Mendel With A Wades Extruder I Took Some Pictures Using My Iphone Of The Mounts Installed. Despite Rotating The Pictures In Windows And Re-Saving Them They Still Appear Rotated In Thingiverse...Not The First Pictures I'Ve Had This Issue With Posting On Thingiverse...Any Ideas?
