Surely, one of you fine folks has a better solution to attach a spare fan to an ISP gateway without damaging it? (sh.itjust.works)

Do you need me to print you a solution?

Wait, really? Like 3d print something? I was actually toying with that idea but I haven't dipped my toes into 3d printing yet and don't have much time lately.

For sure! What part of the world are you in? I have that same unit, so maybe I could cobble something together, but I'm not having your same problem with it (yet?)...

Small adapter that clips into the premade holes and has screw attachments for the fan. Dont have the unit for design purposes but could print the part (mid europe)

I'm in Canada - I'd be more than happy to pay for shipping and supplies but if it's too much work or ends up being too pricey then don't worry about it. :)

No worries at all! Are you able to send detailed, clear pics of what you want and how it needs to fit? Feel free to DM me, I'm game to give this a try. (Also, PacNW)

Oh, and before I forget: are you able to remove the top of the unit to give small zip ties a try?
