Print Instructions:
Everything prints just fine flat on the print bed. Part 5 and 6 need supports on the male connector tip and part 2 I printed with a 2mm brim so they stayed on the print bed. Part 2 is the only thing you may need to trouble shoot due to your printer. Currently it’s just a 4.9mm wide cylinder at 9mm height. Alternatively, you can just superglue the parts that require the dowel together.
You can remove the yellow data cable from your fan before getting it into the holder. If you do want to attach an on off switch you just need to solder the hot end to one side and an extra hot cable soldered off the other side then hook it up to the 12v power supply. It can also be wired up with a USB cord but the fan output is underwhelming.
