Workes very well with the LM2596S chassis. The noctua is a 15mm one i had left over. Thank you very much !

In hindsight i would modify the grill a little in the slicer fill it below the converter chassis.
🚧 One other thing, the fan connector was labeled wrong on my mainboard. The silkscreen has the wrong polarity on it. Maybe check this with a multimeter beforehand. (edited)

Had issues with "non-manifold edges" in orcaslicer, fixed it using blender "remesh" modifier

Looks fine, everything fits, I will install it once I get better screws for the fan. A round head screw won't fit under the convertor.

Printed perfectly in PETG. Thanks mate.

@PhantomAura_1179965 I used the housing for the LM2596S from https://www.printables.com/model/408716-gehause-lm2596s-dc-dc and attached it with 2 M3*4 screws (+nuts and washers).

But that's a good idea, both models could be remixed to cover less intake and not have to use screws.

@Aferac_1360715 awesome, I hadnt gotten around to making or finding a housing, this looks perfect!

I followed the lead of @alfarofilms_1593387 as I also didn't want to solder anything (and because I couldn't find a converter with the same hole configuration as the model (and I didn't want to mess around with modeling). I didn't want to have to futz with the screw on the converter to control fan speed so i fount a potentiometer with a PWM fan connector on Amazon.

I have the buck converter connected to the potentiometer, which is connected to a 3 way fan splitter: One to the PSU fan, one to the Mobo fan (I also installed https://www.printables.com/model/565011-sovol-sv06sv06-plus-ultimate-motherboard-fan-mod-9), and one to the exhaust fan for the enclosure for my printer. The unfortunately thing about this potentiometer is that ther isn't any mounting holes, and it's too deep to have mounted through the converter screw hole, So I... utilized the plastic case that it shipped in.

This was one of my first prints, and you can see my z-offset wasn't quite honed in yet, but function of form and all that.

Pairs great with https://www.printables.com/model/403384-hex-fan-grill-for-92mm-fan/comments

@DupsMcKracke_1733828 Great work! Thanks for posting your make and info for others that don't want to solder. Totally agree, function over form, and yours definitely fits that bill.

Didn't want to solder, so I got a different board. Still worked out like a charm 😎😎😎 now I just need to make a cover for it.
