Bed Fan
Print Profile(1)

Description
This is highly based on the model on Printables by JellyTitan, I have it linked as the model origin.
You can tuck the nozzle under the sheet to blow directly on you, but I've found that placing it above the sheet and having a light blanket above it helps disperse it for a more comfortable feel to it.
The base can be found from Paul 2 Travel at https://makerworld.com/en/models/1525982-bed-rocket-v2-bed-cooling-system?from=search#profileId-1599640. I printed my base with shorter legs and shorter tube on top, but his model doesn't allow remixes so I don't have it uploaded here. All I did was cut the model on the top and again on the bottom if you want to duplicate that. I think the fan I used was shorter and needed the top shorter.
I glued the grid onto the fan to prevent any accidental injuries from moving parts.
I have added ribs to the straight tube to make it more sturdy. It wasn't really necessary but I liked it better with them. The tube directly on top of the fan still needs printed without the ribs in order to go on the fan. The height can be easily adjusted to accomadate different bed heights.
I altered the clip from the original file to have rounded bumps instead of sharp triangles so it didn't accidentally get pulled out and rip anything on the mattress or box spring. The long part goes between the box spring and mattress and the round part attaches to the tube. You can use a rubberband to secure it better with the prongs if needed. I've accidentally kicked it when moving around and it's stayed in place.
You'll need to purchase a 4 inch inline duct fan and a variable speed controller if it doesn't come with it. I've linked an example of each below, I used the fan that was stronger with 195 CFM because you can turn it down if needed with the controller.
