Topic: Created a Clip on Fan Guard

I was having some problems with the filament running into the fan and stopping it when the extruder backed up into the back left corner. Drew this simple thing up to block it. Made it clip on so I didn't have to mess with screws.

Re: Created a Clip on Fan Guard

Nice mod, but would it be a bit more secure if you used those screws that are raised up by washers to screw and hold the grille in place instead of making it clip on? Its a little more work to take on and off, but then you would t need to worry about printing the over hanging parts of the clip.

Just a suggestion...
