I'm going to duct my fan through my e3d hot end and then down to the nozzle. I'm doing a redesign of the carriages so I'll have a few different ways to do it. I have lots and lots of parts coming in which gives me time to draw up and print everything!

Yep yep. The fan helps a lot! I bet it would work even better with a duct to direct the air but haven't tried that out yet.

I also wonder the difference with ABS vs the PLA that I used.

I think it came out pretty good. Printed with mostly default settings in Slic3r at .4mm height.

Thats pretty neat! I might have to play with that model to see if I can do just as well

This thing was fun to watch.

I don't have a fan on my dood yet, but I was happy considering. I was really impressed how far the plastic will drag out.

Anyone else ever printed this before? I wouldn't mind seeing pictures. It's a little droopy on the bottom and the "OK" on the top didn't come out very good since it printed the letters so fast. I'm working out a fan solution to counter those issues.
