Replacement Fan Shroud / Blower / Air Director.

I made a thing. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4252819
It works so far fine as a replacement if not slightly better then the stock fan, however I am biased so if anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears.
I will likely make the duct slightly smaller for the fan to fit into, when I can edit the listing again but I can't seem to do it currently. As it stands you have to be firm when pressing the fan back in to get it to fit on the two fan posts with the duct.
This will not however be a good replacement for a much better fan setup, with actual airflow, as this is still working with the very wimpy stock fan.

A 30mm radial fan would do a far better job
A scorpion style fan duct with a more powerful fan is what I would be looking at if there is enough mechanical clearance to fit one
Personally, I think you are wasting your time trying to make the puny original fan do the job required
Howdy, Stranger!
