Custom Request - 12032 Hex Zero #4

Open Kosh42 opened 9 months ago

Love the ducts. Any chance of a 12032 Hex Zero compatible if you get time, please?

Due to the extreme space constraints in the Hex-Zero fitting a 12032 has a bunch of (potential) issues.

Issues when installed on the right side: The bed frame at the front requires the fan to be shifted back so far, that it would collide with the z-drag chain with the current mounting system for the ducts. So the mounting system would need to be redesigned to clear the drag chain and even then it is quite likely that the drag chain will rub on the fan housing and could potentially get caught (this would need testing in the real world).

Issues when installed on the left side: First of all the mini klicky of the Hexburner can't be used as the dock is in the way. Second due to the extreme offset of the fan outlet to the print bed center the duct would have a even more aggressive bend in the airpath than the "stock v0" duct. Hex-Zero Assembly v2_2

That being said, I think I'll try to make a version that fits on the right side of the printer, as the outlet of the fan is pretty well aligned with the bed. Biggest challenge will be to design mounts that make everything fit, my current idea is to insert heatsets into some of the fan's mounting holes (like in the skirt fans of a V2.4 or Trident). I should have more free time next month so maybe I can throw something together, but no promises.

Added a variant to be mounted on the right side with f02e5725cffeb67c84f2ddce15a8a37172ef3aae

Files and more info can be found in the Folder.

As this is currently untested and both the clearance and new mounting system could be problematic, I will leave this issue open until I receive feedback on this.
