    Printrbot Simple Metal Blower Mount 3D Print Model

    Summary
    Adding a blower type fan has significantly improved my print quality. I used the following fan, but any similar 75mm blower fan should work, provided it doesn’t draw more than about .4A of current.
    https://www.aliexpress.com/item/GTFS-75mm-x-30mm-DC-12V-0-36A-2Pin-Computer-PC-Blower-Cooling-Fan/32665460063.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.X9b0Qz
    The other fan mounts I found all keep the blower fan at an angle, taking up more space than is necessary. I also found the mounts had no way of securing the blower, and it would rattle around during printing, and always made me feel like it would fall out.
    This fan mount keeps the blower in a more secure vertical orientation, and keeps it close to the extruder motor, making it a little more compact. This makes it a bit easier to access the build plate. The mount allows for zip ties to be threaded through the blower mounting holes, firmly securing the blower to the printer.

    Printrbot Simple Wide Foot Print Foot Pegs 3D Print Model

    Summary
    The original feet for https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:593072 were too big to insert in the bracket, because I did not have flexible filament. Originals probably fit snug, when printed with different filament.
    Someone mentioned https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:280489 these scaled at 130%, however they were too big. Bottoms are 1″; I tried to use felt pads, but they slide to much.
    So I created these and made them from stock PLA, they are 3/4″ or 20mm & they fit perfect & snapped into place. I added some rubber pads from Home Depot, and the now the printer does not shift around or move, and it is quietier.
    Shout out to Thorped for the design on the foot bar, it is very durable and the best I have seen yet. Snaps into place and widens the stance. Highly recommend you print it, try all of the pegs and find what works best for you.

    I use 50% infill on all of my parts for the printers. It may be overkill, but at least I don’t have to do it twice.
