Notes:

This is an untested model I have not printed yet. It should work as it has all proper clearances, but as it is still untested I am unaware of any flaws such as air leakage, missed clearances, or undesirable sounds it may make. If you choose to make this please feel free to reach out or leave a comment with any improvements you see to be made, or feel free to remix it. 

For proper flow out of the Ring Director, I recommend only using the Dual Fan Core and Main Body.

It was designed using these parts in mind (Names pulled from Amazon):
-Noctua NF-F12 iPPC

-CRJ Full Speed 12V Voltage Step-Up USB to Dual 3-Pin and 4-Pin PC Fan Sleeved Power Adapter Cable

-Noctua NA-FC1

(Current price as of writing for the aforementioned parts is $90.00 USD.)
