So I need some new feet for my box fans... who doesn't... those things break so easy it's criminal. In any case I looked on Thingiverse and there are several available but they all need lots of support. If I'm going to use extra filament, I want it to be on the part! Not to mention a lot of them lament how hard it is to remove the supports.
The way to get rid of those nasty supports is to print these things on their side and I also chose to move the supported part to one side or the other (right and left) The fan won't care that they are asymmetrical and its not like you're paying for tooling or molds here. When these print they only have a few tiny supports and they are very very easy to remove. I'm going to bet a lot of you that need this will try it without supports and it will be just fine. I also made the rest of the foot a big slab. With low infill these still print pretty fast (1 hr or so) and all that plastic is going to an aesthetic fan foot instead of support mater
