Here is a hotend mount for Berd-Air cooling on a Seckit SK-Tank using the BMG extruder and Dragon HF hotend*, and the optional carbon fiber X carriage.

The mount attaches to the carbon fiber carriage adapter and midplate, and provides an inductive probe mount that is much easier to access than the one in the stock duct.

On the input side, the mount is designed to take a 6mm ID x 8mm OD silicone tube, running vertically down beside the edge of the carriage adapter on the right side behind the belts.

On the output side, I am using 4mm ID x 6mm OD aluminum tubes, with 4x 2mm holes per tube. Internally the duct is designed to avoid intrusions into the path of airflow, and these dimensions keep the cross-sectional area of the airflow reasonably constant to avoid loss of flow due to compression and expansion.

*It would probably work with a V6, but would need changes to work with a Volcano.
