    I found this on thingiverse, but it looses some build volume because it is too bulky, I was wondering if anyone could make something similar or knows of one already.

    I'd like it to work with the stock carriage if possible

    You could use that one with a better fan.The fans from Robo are not moving much air.
    Get a Noctua fan and it will move enough air. There are other brands.

    I would but as it's designed he mentioned it looses some print volume because it hits the bottom edge of the RoBo cover when it goes too far up, ID rather not lose any print area :-/, I think I actually did buy a noctua already I'm running a single one of NoviceExpert's tool-less coolers, but due to how I mounted the hot end there isn't enough clearance for the front duct to mount, it hits the hot end heat block and I'm the terrible when it comes to modifying or making any kind of intricate models
