About this model

This is my first contribution to the Anet printer community. It is well known that the Anet mainboard needs cooling for safer usage. I designed this cover and fitted a 40mm fan to cool the mainboard, specifically for the components with heat sinks. All wiring and connectors are accessible without having to remove the cover.
