    Final fan duct setup:


    Duct without nozzle:


    Top down view of carriage and duct.


    16x9x10 nozzle.


    As long as you use a 10mm or less height and length, the nozzle stays clear of the printbed.
    You could have more height and less length. But 10x10 is pretty optimal.


    I'll upload files to thingiverse after lunch.
    Including just the clip so people can add their own nozzles.
    Might seperate the nozzle modules and see if I can make it a thingiverse parametric script.

    This duct is designed to fit number40's larger carriage. Not going to post the file for the smaller carriage - as people should be using the larger one anyway :-)

    No extra screws, bolts needed. Fan push fits and is a good tight fit. Mounts using existing carriage bolts and nozzles just clip in and out, again a good tight fit, but easy to change.
    I added a wire extension, wrapped round the main cable conduit and plugged into the fan socket on the motherboard.
    So I've got complete control of the fan - which is pretty neat :-)

    All in all, pretty please with it.

    Without the fan overall weight is about 7gms. It's all 1mm walls except the bolt plat which is 2mm for better strength and a really solid fit.
