Compressed air cooling?
Hi guys first post here, new to the world of 3d-printing awesomeness! I picked myself up a FlashForge Creator Pro over this last week and have ben loving it since I got it. =) Yes, Im still fine tuning, but I expected that. Anyway, after looking into alot of active cooling methods, I had an idea. What if you were to make a printed mount that would hold maybe a 8 gauge size needle pointed at the extrusion head. You would attach this to either a small airbrush pump or possibly even just a aquarium pump. In essence it would just be a precision air blast. Do you think this would have any added benefit over the fan powered type? You could even go a step further and make a printed ring with holes pointing in towards the ID to deliver air. Just an idea =)
Printer will print perfect...
