Fan Shroud


The second thing to print is the Printrbot Fan Shroud, to improve the cooling efficiency of the fan.

After the previous failure, I decided to use the pre-sliced version to see if that was the problem.  The first few attempts had print nozzle crashes into the bed, and calibration wasn't working.

On a thorough examination, I found that one of the bolts holding down the aluminium print bed had not threaded properly through both pieces of plywood.  As a result the wood had separated with a 5mm gap.


Problem Fixed, recalibrate, reprint, success.
