About this model

JKSniper made a very nice Noctua fan upgrade for the MK2. The new MK3 is already provided with a Noctua fan by Prusa which is great because the fan is really silent. However.... that color!!!! Wow... Anyhow, time for a cover. Due to the new construction / design of printer and extruder, the Noctua extruder cooling fan comes really close to the left Z-rod so there is not much space.Taken the Noctua cover from JKSniper as a starting point I have adapted it to fit the MK3 and such that it does not touch the Z-rod. Installation: You need to take out just two M3 bolts/screws of the Noctua fan (the top and bottom bolts at the front) and leave the rear top and bottom bolts in place. The cover has some notches that will "snap" into the rear bolt heads and the front is kept in place by the M3 bolts…
