Hi all.
Noticed on one of my prints today/yesterday that due to cooling only being on one side there were marks/artefacts on one side of my print.
So I thought I'll get a shroud with fans on both sides .
Only trouble is the shroud that I saw (can't find it now ah well) didn't have space for a CR auto leveler.
Does anyone know where I could source a shroud from that has fans both sides, a fan to cool the cold part of the hot end (?) and space for a CL touch?
Printer is an Ender 3 PRO.

EDIT Found it (the one without the space) :-

This one.

I keep meaning to get one, also ender 3 pro.

Theres a bunch of well regarded ones to print, have a look at the Hero Me , Petsfang, Satsanna.

Theres loads of them on thingiverse.

Mmm, do you feel there is enough power in one (side)fan to do both sides or does it really require two (side) fans?

Dont know to be honest, some of the comments i've seen suggest 2 larger fans 5010s, 5015s etc can be overkill and need turning down ... keep meaning to try it out.

But dont know if 2 x big uns are still better for i.e printing overhangs without using supports.

Not sure about 2 x standard ender 3 side fans ( 4010s ).

It may well depend on the fans you use, unfortunately theres a billion of them on Amazon, aliexpress etc and figuring out which is good etc can be a challange.

If you use reddit, the ender3 , 3dprinting and fixmyprint subreddits are very usefull
