I made a fan shroud for the BigTreeTech Octopus Board :)

A simple mod to cool your fans on your octopus board

Files:
The printed files have fan holes with 3mm diameter so you can tap screws into the plastic.
The CNC files have fan holes with 2.6mm diameter so you can thread the metal.

Bill Of Materials:
M3x10mm - 12
25-30mm, 3mm ID, 6mm OD Standoffs (Situational) - 4
M3x40mm Screws (For Standoffs) - 4
4010 Axial Fans - 3

Actually I recommand to use M3 Screws that are 10mm longer than the Standoff you end up using for the said standoff to account for the plate thickness and the PCB thickness and have enough thread left to go inside the m3 heatset inserts under the PCB

#

So example you use 30mm stadnoff then use 40mm M3 Screws

Should this fit the max ez too?

#

Never mind. It should. I looked up the specs of them.

#

woeful thorn Should this fit the max ez too?

I dont believe it does. sorry :)

woeful thorn Sep 10, 2024, 4:07 PM

#

I’ll try it out once I’m up and running again.

gusty agate Sep 10, 2024, 4:45 PM

#

Best try a print before ordering it on SCS if that was your plan

woeful thorn Sep 10, 2024, 4:55 PM

#

Yeah definitely.

keen lotus Sep 15, 2024, 6:27 AM

#

woeful thorn Yeah definitely.

Did you try it yet?

woeful thorn Sep 15, 2024, 11:56 AM

#

Not yet. Hopefully in the next few days. Been busy.

paper harness Sep 15, 2024, 5:21 PM

#

Im gonna try to get it CNC'd or laser cut in the next few weeks.

gusty agate Sep 15, 2024, 10:49 PM

#

I got one in production should get shipped early this week from SCS

#

woeful thorn Sep 16, 2024, 4:43 PM

#

I did a test print and the holes line up pretty good for the max ez. Might be some clearance issue in one of the corners depending on stand off diameter but most should work.

gusty agate Sep 16, 2024, 4:53 PM

#

If it's minor I'm sure Charlotte wouldn't mind making the Fix and Lable it for Octopus Max

woeful thorn Sep 16, 2024, 4:57 PM

#

The ones I'm using aren't really standoff so they are super oversized. I'm going to order some actual ones and test it. It fits even with my oversized ones so I imagine it'll fit for just about everyone.

#

Unfortunately I'm having surgery Wednesday so I won't be able to check again until next week

Hope it goes well and I wish you a full recovery.

paper harness Sep 16, 2024, 6:33 PM

#

woeful thorn I did a test print and the holes line up pretty good for the max ez. Might be so...

if the holes and fans line up, the a 5mm od 3mm id standoff should work. No specific standoff size was given because drivers sometimes have different heatsink dimensions

gusty agate Sep 16, 2024, 6:47 PM

#

Yeah my 30mm was for BTT included TMC Drivers Heatsinks.

#

the plate floats like 1-2mm above top of these heatsinks

gusty agate Sep 16, 2024, 9:48 PM

#

They might ship my aluminum plate tomorrow:

woeful thorn Sep 16, 2024, 9:55 PM

#

Did you get the fans tapped or just leave it and use nuts?

gusty agate Sep 16, 2024, 9:56 PM

#

I'll go tapped but didn't pay for it SCS charges too much. I'll do it by hand when I get it.

woeful thorn Sep 16, 2024, 9:57 PM

#

Yeah I priced it and seemed super expensive. Double the cost.

gusty agate Sep 16, 2024, 9:58 PM

#

Exactly. and the tool to do it costed me 15$ on Amazon with the bits

#

I got it to tap the M5 for the Tension tower

#

and it also has the M3 bit

paper harness Sep 17, 2024, 4:08 AM

#

gusty agate Exactly. and the tool to do it costed me 15$ on Amazon with the bits

I got it for $3 on ali 😏

gusty agate Sep 18, 2024, 12:48 AM

I'll soon get it, pictures will follow:

gusty agate Sep 19, 2024, 7:03 PM

#

That is looking really nice. Just have to tap my fan holes and I can install it.

#

It really looks better than the printed version

#

I like that we still see the aluminum grains even if it's anodized black.

gusty agate Sep 20, 2024, 12:31 AM

#

Underside after tap and fans installed. M3x10 fits flush with the 2mm thick aluminum.

gusty agate Sep 20, 2024, 12:50 AM

#

For the Driver I think I'll be fine with the winsinn but for my heatbreak cooling I'd like something better

#

I won't push my 5 Plus like @upper knot push Zeus

yeah. get some 2510s from fabreeko. theyre on actual drugs

hey @paper harness mind sharing the step file for the zerog version? I'd like to edit it with printed stand offs but onshape isn't quite happy with the stls :/

#

I can import them and add the standoffs, but it refuses to merge the parts into one and if I export them as one part with components in a 3mf file, Orca complains the model has non manifold edges

hmm 🤔 youre right. i thought i listed .step but i didnt apparently. if you ping me in 3h once im back from school, i can get them. otherwise, you can import dxf and extrude to create a parametric model

extruded dxf are parametric
