It really doesn’t want to fit, but that doesn’t mean that I didn’t make it fit.

    Noctua engineers fine tuning different materials to get the impeller as close to hub as possible with sub-mm tolerances.

    #PCMasterRace takes the belt sander to it.

      To me it looks like the half is the installed fan, and the right half is an out of focus macro shot of the fan/belt sander?

      Edit: now I saw it the right half is two close-ups of the fan.

        Yeah, the extra holes I drilled and one of the the sanded sides. Had a decent ridge I had to get rid of on all four sides, the front lip of the side panels kinda have to cram in beside the fan, but, it closes so I’m happy.

    But why print this in the first place? A standard computer vent costs what, less than 20? Probably way cheaper even, if you buy non brand. Can’t see how the materials, time and power consumed isn’t more expensive than that

    E: somehow thought myself in a 3d printing community, my bad.
