GEEETech MK8 Printhead Fan Shroud (compact) ver 2.0 w/ LED mounts

Description

Same As My First Version Except With The Addition Of 4 Led Mounts To Add Light Up Under The Printhead: This Is A Compact Print Cooling Shroud Built For The Geeetech Mk8 Extruder/Printhead - For Me It'S On An Acrylic Prusa I3B. The Shroud Wraps Around The Aluminum Cooling Heatsink Which On My Printer Has The Cooling Fins In A Vertical Orientation. I Used Sketchup To Design The Simple Surround And Ducting To Direct Air Out Of The Bottom Of The Fan/Heatsink And Down To The Front And Back Of The Printhead For Cooling The Print Quite Well. I Added A Thicker 20Mm 40X40 Fan For More Airflow/Pressure And Sealed It Using Aluminum Tape (Find At A Home Store, Used For A/C Ducting). Result: Airflow Is Actually Surprisingly Good And Directed Exactly On Print Extrusion Area . . . And I Don'T Need A "Flying Fan" Attachment. Ver 2.0 Adds The Led'S X4 Directing Light Around The Nozzle So I Don'T Need To Find A Flashlight Every Time I Want To See How My Print Is Doing Or To Inspect/Clean My Nozzle.
