This is a fork of https://github.com/PinkysRevenge/Mantis-Shrimp-Pinky/ Awsome design Pinky!

Original idea and design by nehilo on GitHub. Can be found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KHLhYUvODkVxrdv76lzVsDeCy6QFU4UK/view Credit to @theotherjimmy#8823 on Discord for the initial modifications The Sailfin design is thanks to CROXY3d: https://github.com/CroXY3D/Sailfin-Extruder

Description:

I love the design however, I had issues printing with ABS using the Dragon Toolhead. My theory was that this was caused by the air from the hotend fan blowing across the top of the heat block. So I redesigned the Cage (Mantis-Shrimp_Pinky Body - Alternate for Phaetus Dragon Hotend for ABS printing).

The rest of the project uses Pinky's files.

I Remade the Design in FreeCAD - Realthunder Branch https://github.com/realthunder/FreeCAD/releases because I love FreeCAD and I wanted a model with more freedom to modify key features down the road.

Simulations:

Im also messing around with some Airflow Simulations which are available at [https://www.simscale.com/projects/quinfromcanada/mantis_shrimp_-_copy/]
