I created blower body for fan I salvaged from old broken nvidia card.
Surprisingly, extremely small fan in blower body works much better then 40mm stock fan.
Hand can feel air flow in 20cm distance from fan.
Updated stl files to fix surfaces and stitching.
Update 2: created fins for 40mm fan with broken fins and embedded it into existing body.
Created stl files for both CW and CCW fans as normally 40mm fan is CCW while salvaged videocard fan was CW.
Cap can be printed either way.
