Anet A8+ Power Supply Fan Shroud

This is designed in mm. If your slicer expects inches when you import this, it will be very tiny and you will have to scale it by 25.4 (2540%)
This is a fan shroud for the power supply on the Anet A8+. I had issues with the fan exhaust affecting the quality of prints, especially when printing tall objects in vase mode. This shroud directs the air away from the print bed and solves this problem. An unplanned bonus is that it acts as a muffler and reduces the noise from the power supply fan.
I saw a few similar shrouds on here but they used magnets or had to remove screws from the power supply to attach. This just snaps over the top.
There are several versions of power supply that Anet used. I included a template that you can print to see if this will fit your power supply before printing the full shroud to avoid wasting time and filament. Just print the template first and snap it onto the top of your power supply. If you are happy with the fit, then print the full shroud.
