Milwaukee M12 Desktop Fan Stand

This is a desktop fan stand for 25.5 mm thick 120 mm computer fans and low-capacity Milwaukee M12 batteries.

The unit itself is pretty self-explanatory. There's a hole for a 20 mm toggle switch on the side and  plenty of space on the underside to run wires through. It probably doesn’t fit high-capacity M12 batteries with a square base, as the battery slot is too close to the fan bracket and lacks sufficient clearance. I don’t own one of those larger batteries, so I can’t say for sure.

Print Settings:

• Print upright
• No supports
• Use a brim if you're concerned about warping.
• Any common material should work. I used matte PLA.
• Any infill percentage with a minimum of 2 outer walls. This model is almost entirely outer walls, so infill settings aren’t critical. I used 10% cubic with 3 walls, and it feels very solid.
• If you care, paint the seam line on the inside so the outside is all smooth.

Post Processing:

Take a long object like a screw driver and break the supportive film layer from the bottom side. If you have a small knife that'll probably work better and will get you a cleaner result.

Warning:

While I appreciate the work done by the original designer, the battery holder is unfortunately not very precise. The rail is cut too large, causing the battery to rub against the walls in multiple places. Additionally, the terminal pin holes are off by 3 mm – it should be moved closer to the fan. I had to trim my spade connectors down to about 3 mm in width before it worked. I still recommend trimming down 6.3 mm connectors as opposed to using 2.8 mm connectors because the 6.3 mm connectors are thicker and will last longer. Alternatively, if you decide to fix the model, please share with the community
