The shroud that comes with MeCreator doesn't allow the heater wires to be passed from the back. After breaking 2 thermistors wires while trying to fit them, I've had enough.
With this design I was able to fit everything neatly together. also note that I screwed the heater's screw to be flush with extruder motor on top. Which dramatically increases printers capability to print flexible filaments. Not to mention I gained a few extra cms of build area on Z axis.
UPDATE1:
-Shortened the neck so the shroud sits higher.
-Increased the diameter and gave the arms a curved profile for better air flow.
-Put little fins inside the body to guide airflow, also makes the part easier to print.
