How it came about

The side fans sit right behind the glass panel. This cover goes over the fan bank, so you see the fans and a clean surface around them instead of the bare frame.

Side fan cover, display copy in black, split into the two pieces it prints as

Only the fans show.

Two pieces.

The cover prints as two pieces that join in the middle and sit flush once they are fitted.

Texture in the model.

The carbon texture is drawn into the model rather than applied as a film, so it comes out of the printer in whatever colour you load.

Designed and printed by me on a Bambu Lab H2D. The print files for this case mod and the other Light Base 500 LX parts are on my MakerWorld profile.
