MPSM V2 40mm Fan Shroud

Description

I Purchased A Noctua A4X20 (40X40X20 Mm) Fan After My Stock V2 Fan Started Making All Kinds Of Noise And Would Screech To A Halt During Prints. I Printed And Installed The Monoprice Mp Select Mini V2 40Mm Fan Shroud By Keco185 (Https://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:2448223). I Really Liked The Mounting Design That Indexed Around The Top Of The Hotend. However, Even Though The Noctua Fan Is Super Quiet And Advertises ~5.5 Cfm It Just Didn'T Feel Like It Was Moving Enough Air And The Backflow Was Noticeable. I Next To A Look At Conklech'S Mp Select Mini V2 40Mm Fan Duct Design (Https://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:2301517). This Design Has A Much Smoother And More Direct Path For Part Cooling. His Design For The Retaining Spring Tabs Was Also Very Good. Unfortunately Only Having Two Holes To Mount A Fan Was A Drawback To This Design. I Decided In Order To Increase The Throughput And Reduce Backflow I Would Re-Mix The Keco185 Design With The Conklech Design Using Those Things I Like About Both And Also Added 2 Additional Holes For Mounting. I Use Zip Ties To Mount My Fan As I Find That To Be The Easiest And Most Efficient Way For Me. The Two Holes I Added Are Not Full Mounting Holes But Work Great With Zip Ties. I Didn'T Spend A Great Deal Of Time On That Aspect As This Is A Functional Design For Me. This Design Should Work With Any 40Mm Fan But Is Performing Very Well With The Noctua A4X20.
