Artillery Sidewinder X1 - 40mm external "clip on" fan housing / SD slot cover

Description

This is a clip on fan housing for Artillery Sidewinder X1. I own V4 and it fits, dont know about lower versions. It is not as elegant and sophisticated as Ric's3D, but does the job, especially for those who dont want to open the printers housing. Initially i made it for serveral 2mm and 10mm magnets, but later i learned, the printers housing is non-magnetic.... :-) and i need to buy some propper screws. ;-) The idea is, to blow air into the printer on the left hand side and let the original 80mm fan suck more air through the other side, where the mainboard and stepper drivers are located. I think it works, but just tested with a lighter, since i dont have a digital temperature gauge. I use the USB port, because it`s not 24V and I dont need it. I dust-cover the SD card slot, because i don´t use SD cards. If you use SD cards, just slice the covering part away, two cable holder will remain. USB by default delivers up to 5,25 V and 0,5 A. The 40mm Noctua fan consumpts 5Volts @ 0,1A and delivers nominal 700 L/Min. I have no concerns about it. But, use @ your own risk. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bCzSQHmJN8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_nPWg7Op0c
