This is a remix (but for some reason I cant link as a Remix) of 2 parts to create a compact / minimalist TriangleLab Dragon hotend mount for a Creality Ender3 / CR10 that also includes a 40mm fan shroud for re-using the stock Creality fan.
Why ?
Unlike an E3D V6, the TriangeLab Dragon does not ship with a fan shroud or fan.
This allows the stock 40mm fan to be re-used - and is quieter than the smaller 30mm fan included with E3D V6 fan shrouds.
This combination of parts provides excellent nozzle visibility - from both front and left side view.
Part cooling duct is height adjustable to suit your preference.
I was able to re-use the metal BL-Touch mount that came with my probe - but there is a 2 piece BL-Touch mount on the first link below.
In the past Ive tried several part cooling ducts (petsfang, Hydra etc) with 2 air ducts facing each other, and had problems with warping and bed adhesion - I think due to the 2 air streams smashing into each other.
For me, a single fan duct blowing air in 1 direction (as per Creality stock setup) is more stable. YMMV.
The parts I have remixed, or included here (to maintain a complete solution) are based on these excellent works:

The new part I have created (by remixing 2 of the above) is: 2_V6 Bracket with 40mm Fan Adaptor v1.0.stl
Requires the following hardware:
- 2x 6mm M3 bolts for attaching the bracket to the Creality carriage plate
- 2x 40mm M3 bolts to secure the 40mm fan shroud to the bracket
- 1x 10mm M3 bolt to secure part cooling duct
- 3x M3 nuts
- 1x 5015 part cooling fan
