Motivation
I wanted a way to draw heated chamber air for the auxiliary part fan instead of cool external air. There is not much space to work with but I managed to fit in a new fan intake that uses the existing fan screws.
Printing
I printed with tree supports for the very top of the intake. I set highlight overhangs to 30deg and used fill tool to select just the highlighted part. See the pictures for reference in Orca slicer.
A brim is strongly recommended. I printed in PETG first and that lasted in a 60deg chamber to print a final copy in ABS.
For extra points add a bit of foam tape to the back to reduce vibrations to the rear plate!
Possible Future Changes
Add a sealing groove to the fan mounting face.
Optimize for ideal airflow
