@Elmo Clarity : I may have gone too big on the fans, but I figured I don't have to drive them at full power. May as well have a big gas pedal if...
@craftygeek, as far as fans go for filament cooling, I'd picked up a pair of generic 40mm ones... I'm guessing they put out 4cfm each. But since...

@Carl Feniak : Glad you like the blog ;) Thanks for the info on loosening stuff (and the screws are oiled). I was actually thinking about...
