Prints Without Support!
I was not satisfied with the stock fan shroud that came with the MeCreator 2. Even though it worked, the print quality was not very good and I didn't like the design in general. I decided to design my own fan shroud for it.
I designed this model months ago, but decided it's worth sharing with whomever else has this printer.
EDIT: I have added a mashup model of the concentrated airflow fan shroud I designed for the Prusa MK3. I imagine it will provide good results here as well, although I haven't had the opportunity to test it yet.
My work can be found and modified on onshape by following the link below. Sorry the work is a bit of a mess.

It is recommended to print with ABS or PETG, or other higher temperature plastics.
You can print with PLA and it will probably work, as long as you only print with PLA. If you are printing with ABS, it would likely warp from the heat and lack of cooling fan activity.
