Posted · Kudos to Dynamism!

I would like to give Dynamism a Gold Star (tm) for not gouging on repair parts.

 

Some time ago, I had prints failing due to an inoperative print head fan.  It was a broken connection, so easy to fix.

 

However, the other day it started the same thing again, and I noticed that the fan was not spinning.

 

Disassembly showed a lot of environmental cat hair (yes, yes, I know) stuck in it, and although I can clean that out, I thought it would be a good idea to replace it with a new known-good one to avoid the masochistic disassembly of the print head yet again.

 

Being che^H^H^Hfrugal, I first checked Amazon with the Sunon part number, thinking they would probably be cheaper.  $47-ish for a new fan on Amazon.

 

Then I checked Dynamism and it was $19 and change, less than half of Amazon's price!

 

Thanks again to Dynamism.  😉

I checked some official Ultimaker resellers, and with all of them the fan was €17 to €20. 
So, I would say a Gold Star to all Official Ultimaker resellers and a downgrade to Amazon. 😉
