Geeetech i3 E3D direct drive extruder part cooling fan remix - Gen1

Attention: This is my first attempt and the 4020 part cooling fan wasn't as good as I hoped it would be. Sunon fans don't work too well with pwm for some reasons. If this works fine for your fan, tell me which one you are using. But I recommend using Gen 2 instead. Gen 2 is designed for a single 5015 blower fan and a BL-Touch.
This is a part cooling fan mount/duct, that I designed for lipki's direct drive extruder design: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2665491
This was my first attempt to create a fan duct, so it certainly has room for improvements. I couldn't find a position for a 5015 blower fan with which I was happy, so I used a 4020 radial fan for now.
If anyone wants to improve upon my design, I included my Fusion 360 project.
Plans for the next version:
- add ABL mount to the left side (BL-Touch or Inductive maybe)
- improve the angle of the part cooling fan duct
- try to switch to blower style part cooling fan (there are some issues with the space)
If you have any suggestions, just put them in the comments.
