About this 3D model

Using this to cover some 80mm fans I picked up to cool my X and Y stepper motors. When I first built my printer I started to realize that the X and Y motors were getting very warm. To extend their life they are best suited for lower vs higher temps. I used 80mm fans ( https://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Bearing-Cooling-Computer/dp/B002R9RBO0/ref=as_li_ss_tl?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1489294692&sr=1-2&keywords=80mm+fan&linkCode=sl1&tag=dronereview04-20&linkId=24291f1a6bd9fb1cfc293ba88b5fc8e5 ) with these guards and dramatically lowered my temps of the stepper motors.
