Firstly, I do encourage you to please post your prints and comments/review on your thoughts and improvement ideas as well as like if you do like the model, It is much appreciated :-) 

Overview

I printed a great model of the BL X1C Exhaust Fan Adapter designed by Wolfie3D as I intend to print ABS/ASA and connect a duct hose to vent the fumes accordingly. However, I had two challenges:

  1. The back of my X1C is located close to my office wall (hence, a bend would be required)
  2. The duct hose I have is 4" in diameter, and the model diameter is smaller

So, I designed this model (I am sure there is already one out there) with a 90-degree bend and a “slotted” design where the reducer and the original model connect to try and create a better seal instead of a regular hole that is slightly larger than 75.5mm of the original model.

Additionally, I designed a gasket printed in TPU for an improved seal between the printer and the original model.

I printed the 90-degree Reducer with the standard 0.20mm BL X1C Profile, with the below adjustment:

  1. Enable Supports (I used tree support (Auto))
  2. Disabled “From Build Plate Only”
  3. I placed the model on the curved edge, as shown in the attached images

Regarding the gasket….well…it's TPU :-) so slow is the way to go…which gets me good results.

Full credit goes to Wolfie3D for the original Exhaust Fan Adapter which my models work in conjunction with. Please download that model via the following link:  https://www.printables.com/model/280283-bambu-labs-x1c-exhuast-adapter
