Description
I remixed this to replace the y-pipe at the top of the vent with one that has an opening on either end to all for printers next to this to use the same vent line. This also allowed a more direct path to my vent fan.
My build plate looked like this:
I don't think it matters much, but I used 0.28mm SuperDraft Settings in Orca with the following deviations:
I used PLA, because I don't think the air will be too hot when it enters the vent system. But I'll post an update if I find that it has issues.
It's designed to connect to 100mm (4in) duct work. Also checkout my simple hose clamp.
I may do another remix to add a gate to allow the user to manually open and close the vent to this printer while letting vent continue to the printers downstream. If there's interest in this, let me know. Also, if anyone needs any different sizes please let me know and I'll try and post them.
