    So I am in the process of doing a dual cooling fan update and noticed that when I try to attach the front fan housing, the extruder fan is in the way. I've seen pictures of people turning the extruder fan 90 degrees but can't figure out how to do it right. Has anyone done this? Is there an STL people are using? Its the R1 pla+abs model and it has the hexagon hot end. I've looked for a different extruder fan mount to turn it to the side but haven't found anything.

    Any advice?

    I ended up finding a model on thingiverse after doing some more searching. It has an extruder fan mount built right in. Printed it out and everything fit perfect. Great cooling now! My bridges are holding together nicely now.
