Raspberry Pi 40mm Noctua Fan Mount by I_need_a_better_name

My Octopi was overheating, and throttling, because it's case had very little airflow. I went a searching for a fan in the parts bin, but alas, there were no 5v fans (or a boost converter) to be found. I picked up a Noctua cooling fan from Amazon, and it came with these funny little silicone isolation feet. I figured, why not, and after some inspiration from Keshyden's 40mm mount, I printed one of these out.
Edit: I'm an idiot sometimes. I should've incorporated the standoffs into the fan mount in the first place. The 12mm standoffs should clear most heatsinks.
