Today we're going to fix a super annoying problem with the QIDI X-Plus3, which must be the loudest 3D printer on the planet. It howls and whines when it's just sitting idle. Today we're going to pick a better fan, design an adapter in Fusion 360, 3D print it, and install it on the machine. So I can live with the printer in my house, and maybe even sleep at night.
