not for the faint of heart - proceed with caution
For best Airflow you'll need to remove the stock display ribbon cable mount. I also removed the center USB ports. You can de-solder, or like I did, cut them.
My Pi was having network (heat) issues with the TFT mounted on it, so I made this fan. You don't need to remove the USB ports, but the display connector will have to go.
Please don't complain if you do this wrong and kill your pi.
What you'll need:
Raspberry Pi 3B
30mm 5v fan - search "Pi Fan"
2x m3x5 screws
heat sinks (optional)
2x header pins, optional, you can just solder the fan directly to pins 2 or 4(+5v) 6(gnd)
