[title] 3D Parts Post Print & Assembly |
[* black] Experienced 3D printers will notice this project requires minimal post print processing. Do inspect prints for stringing and remove fine string with heated air. Remove burrs if needed. 3 mm bolt passages are easier to use if one runs a 3 mm drill through them before assembly. |
[* black] I have intentionally designed to allow operation without too close a required tolerance. Most of the HALO respirator runs under positive pressure and is not involved in gas sealing. Bag does most of the work.

[* black] Lap the fan flange base so it can seat tightly against fan body. A gasket of silicone around fan interface with the flange is a reasonable precaution, but probably not needed if you lap the flange base flat. |
[* black] Fan attaches to its mount and flange via M3 bolts and nuts. Length of bolt should be just over 5 mm longer than fan thickness. A single 10 mm M3 bolt and nut attach fan mount to halo.
