The mount itself is attached to the surface of the fan with screws that are already in place from the factory.
Since space is incredibly tight, screws are not an option. So accelerometer simply snaps in place with the printed cylinders that have a tap of 1 degree.
Print parameters
Material: PETG
Brand: noname, really, this is local manufacturer
Print settings:
Nozzle: 0.4mm
Layer height: 0.2mm
Wall loops: 4
How to mount the accelerometer:
1) Attach the ADXL345 to the printed mount. It should attach very easily, with little effort
2) Unscrew the extruder stepper motor to access the fan screws. This must be done carefully, as there is a possibility of damaging the wires. It is better to first remove the entire hotend, disconnect the wires, taking a picture of how everything was connected, and then remove the engine. I'm lazy, so I just carefully removed the engine and hung it on the wires :)
3) Unscrew the screws of the fan, mount the accelerometer, screw the screws back into place. Screw the extruder motor into place
4) Lead the wires through the hotend, and then lead them to the main board in any way you like, then connect the wires to the ADXL345 pins (just as it is already described in other guides)
I dont know if this mount can be used with other Neptune printers, but seems like it can be used with Neptune 4 as it has identical hotend assembly
