Ummm...sounds good, but the process sounds like Greek to me . I can do computers well enough to navigate the web, send emails, and download files. ANy way you can break that down into easy steps, explanation-wise?Quote

There is an un-merged pull request for an OpenScad E3D fan duct. That should adjust itself for the sturdy. If you fork Mendel90 on github and merge it then it might give you what you want, but github is not the most straightforward thing to use, else I would have merged it myself but I know that will cause me grief because it clashes with un-merged changes of my own.

I do have the e3d v6 in use on the Dibond with this: Fan Duct e3d
There are two versions 25mm and 31mm high. Because I did not know before how it would work with the printer my version is the 25mm with some washers to correct the height to 31mm again. This duct is fixed like the new github one on the origin mount. So it should fit on the sturdy version also.
As you can see on the picture there is no chance to continue with the wing nut. In any case the screw has to be mounted upside down and secured due to space with a normal nut. The other side still works with the wing nut.

Yepp, I forgot the 4mm more in diameter for the 10mm bearing ... parametric design is very good on one hand but can bring you to real fustration alsoQuote
Rich K.
The big problem isn't so much using the original mount with this one, it's the fact that it needs to be longer in the "sturdy" version because the LM10UU bearings are larger in diameter. Otherwise, the hotend isn't centered in the opening front-to-back, and ends up too close to the back of the opening if you try to use a "dibond" length duct with a "sturdy" x-carriage, and the radiated heat makes the edge of the duct sag and eventually touch the heater block of the hotend. I had this problem with a Chinese J-head clone that had a heater block the same size as the one on the E3D.

Again it is all not parametric though, so only works for whichever version Ivor built.
OpenScad is the DNA of RepRap. I think anything that doesn't use it is doomed as an evolutionary dead end, however good it might be.
