In the Anet A6 kit the 40mm fan is bolted against the cooling rib to keep the filament assembly drive together. This is done without no support for the fan.

I made this spacer/standoff design to give proper support for the 40mm cooling fan and make the assembly more rigid. To make assembly easier the two spacers is interconnected with a bridge with correct spacing, just insert it into the cooling rib as shown on the photos.
