Geeetech Prusa I3 Pro B Fan Duct

Desgined it because all other parts I found didn't fit good enough or are too low and crash into the paper clip that holds the print bed.

Update 2016-10-02:

I had an issue with my printer, caused by the cooling fan which blows the air direct on the temperature sensor of the heater. This results in a way too high temperature for example I set the temperature to 215°C and through the cooling fan the heater thought it is too cold and heats up to 265°C.

Make sure your temperature sensor is protected from the cooling air.

I will design an additional part which covers the heater and the sensor.

Or you use kapton tape to cover the extruder block with the heater and the temperature sensor.

I designed a new fan duct: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1877005

This solves my issues and is more compact anyway :)

Update 2017-08-08:

Designed and added a cover which should prevent air flow getting to the temperature sensor. Print it as shown on the screenshot with support. Have not tested it yet, but should work fine. Leave a comment if you tried it.
