Posted (edited) · Best Fan Mount for Ultimaker2?

OK, I'm new. I think I want to try one of the improved fan mounts people have made.

Does anybody have experience comparing them. A lot of them look similar. Is there one that stands out above the rest?

What material would you recommend making the fan mount out of? Is there a high temp filament?

I do not have the Olsson Hot End.

    Hi,

    what I can say now, after over nine month of usage, is that the Fan Base UM2 by Zetoff work very well and I'm very satisfied with the results :)

    Adding, ad described, a little metal shield (... from a beer can :D ) , I don't have had any problem of deformation due to temperature of the hot-end :)

    Certainly I recommend it!

    Only one negative point ... to mount and dismount ... you have to remove the fans first ... :(
