Purpose: Reduce sucking in hot air from the heated bed to ensure that the heatbreak can function as well as it should. The principle that I saw in this is that the vents and channel leading upward should provide enough free air to not restrict. By removing the significant gap below the fan as the primary air source this should be accomplished as best as can be without adding significant weight or other modifications
Goal: To add as little as possible to the tool head. I did not want to impact the inertia/momentum that the motors need to overcome. Coming in at 0.8g total added the weight of the plastic in the tube likely has more impact.
The changes from the reference model.

Note: As with the refence model, this does not work with the X1* due to lidar in the way
