Post Processing

The pre supports should pop off with minimal effort. If you have any resistance, simply run a sharp blade between the duct and the support.

The small sections of support within the mounting tabs should pop out with a firm press, or with a gentle wiggle with long nosed pliers.

Assembly

7530
Press fit the 7530 fan into the duct, place the 7530 fan cover in front and secure with 2 M4 x 40mm bolts. (1 for holding to the ducts mounting arm and 1 for purely holding the cover in place)

5015
Press fit the 5015 adaptor into the duct. Then press fit the 2 5015's into the adaptor and secure with 2 M4 x 40mm bolts.

Mounting To The Extruder
Use 3x M3x5mm bolts to mount Uproar to the extruder. Stock bolts will be fine on the right hand mounting tab, but you will need to find an M3 bolt with a low profile head, for the left hand tab. You can often find one of these somewhere on the printer that can be substituted for a stock bolt with a larger head. E.g. The motherboard cover on an Ender 3.

Tolerances for the adaptors are tight. If your printer is not dialled in well, you could run into fitment issues. If you feel any resistance while assembling the parts, then stop and file the lower 5mm of the adaptor until it presses nicely into the duct without extreme pressure. BE CAREFUL HERE, YOU CAN EASILY CRACK YOUR FRESHLY PRINTED DUCT, SO TAKE EXTRA TIME TO ENSURE PROPER FITMENT.

If you would like to permanently fit the adaptors/7530 in one mode, use small bead of hot glue around the inner ridge of the the fan opening on the duct. This will invisibly create a completely air tight seal and ensure there are no rattles when moving at high acceleration/speeds.

Special thanks to Juan Valentin for his rigorous testing and design ideas. The fan cover is his design concept

Also I'd like to thank Mac Kloberg for the initial inspiration, tips and advice while developing Uproar.

Edit

I have changed the file names to reflect some feedback I've received regarding Ceramic hot ends

Z-3D

Use the pre supported model files for the easiest prints.

• 0.4mm Nozzle Diameter.
• =<0.2mm Layer Height.
• 0% Infill.
• 4 Perimeters.
• 'Bridge Mode' On.
• 4 Top/Bottom Layers
• Use A Skirt (Brims Will Cause Fitment Issues)

Use a high temperature filament like PETG or ASA for ultimate longevity of the duct nozzle tips.

Print time should be between 1.5hr and 3hr depending on your speed and acceleration settings.
