Rerouted hot end cables to increase fan airflow meant the Minda was misaligned to the hot bed.

Hot end clogs on the mini are attributed to heat creep and poor PFTE setup.
I've managed to fix this issue by not installing a aftermarket heat break but by adding better heat paste and re-routing the hot end - thermister and heater cartridge wires out of the immediate fan intake.
Re-routing the cables I've exceeded the original Minda mount structural limits and introduced a twist which had lead to a Minda misalignment. Probing still seemed to work but I did have one failure.
I re-modeled and introduced a 3 deg offset to re-align the Minda to the heat bed. This replacement still retains all original hardware.
Also increased the structure strength around fan attaching point as my original was cracked from the factory.
Added a cable cut out to reduce cable pinching between holder and fan shroud.
Minor adjustment to the Minda clamp to allow for an easier adjust and tighten.
Overall works well and I think is a great improvement over the original. I'll let you be the judge.
