Bionaire BASF1516 Fan - broken cage mount fix
Description
The threaded part of the plastic motor housing that doubles as the mount for the fan's protective cage (with a large finger nut) broke on my fan. The threaded section literally tore off and the fan cage was bouncing on the spinning fan's shaft until it got bound up. I designed this part to work with the remaining portion of the plastic motor housing. I used a utility knife to trim the some of the remaining plastic of the motor housing to provide clearance for this new part. - The design adds a raised ring to help locate the metal cage centered around the motor shaft and carry the weight of the fan when it's lifted by the cage's handle. - The design includes a 0.8mm printable plastic washer to use in the bottom screw location after press fitting the main printed part over the back of the plastic motor housing (as this screw location was 0.8mm deeper than the other three). - The design was drawn at 10x size. Scale it to 10% in your slicer (I used Cura).
