Magnetic hotend fan cover for Afterburner

This replaces the screw-mounted hotend fan cover with one that is held by magnets, for a clean front face and easier access to the toolhead. Works with an unmodified toolhead.

Inspired by ModCables101's magnet mod.

Required hardware

  • 6x3mm round magnet (2x)
  • M3x8 SHCS — steel, not stainless (2x)

Instructions

Press the magnets into the new cover. Screw the M3x8 screws into the toolhead until they bottom out; the heads should protrude 4mm from the surface.
