-recently i've decided to change hotend to full-metal one [[https://store.creality.com/products/spider-v3-high-temperature-and-high-flow-hotend-pro|creality spider]]. the main criteria for it was for it to be full-metal... and an (almost) drop-in replacement for E3D V5 used by chiron. as you might have guessed by now -- the "almost" part became a theme of a last couple days or so... :/ i'll detail the story out in a separate post. for now i'll only focus on a new cooling mechanism.+recently i've decided to change hotend to full-metal one [[https://store.creality.com/products/spider-v3-high-temperature-and-high-flow-hotend-pro|creality spider]].

 the idea was to make cooling fan blowing directly on the radiator, including proper guides, to make sure air travels pass it's ribs. it took this as an opportunity to also make it as open as possible (both in OSS-spirit and space-wise ;)). last but not least -- filament cooling duct was redesigned along the way. the idea was to make cooling fan blowing directly on the radiator, including proper guides, to make sure air travels pass it's ribs. it took this as an opportunity to also make it as open as possible (both in OSS-spirit and space-wise ;)). last but not least -- filament cooling duct was redesigned along the way.
