CNC Spindle Air Deflector

Chinese 52 mm air-cooled CNC spindles are a popular choice among hobbyists. However, a common issue is that the cooling fan scatters shavings all over the workspace, which can be particularly bothersome — especially when operating the machine in a shared or indoor environment.

This project offers a 3D-printed air deflector that mounts directly onto the spindle. It redirects the airflow away from the cutting area while still maintaining proper cooling of the spindle.

The project is available on [GitHub](https://github.com/ashep/cnc-spindle-air-deflector).
