Summary

For FlashForge og CTC see note at the bottom:

In my struggle to find m3x60 bolts for attaching the Active Cooling Fan Duct - http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:295317 - I found the bracket but couldn't get it to stick properly.

Based on this bracket I've done quite a heavy redesign where it now attaches at the two small holes in the gantry, into the linear bearings. This also allowed me to make it much smaller and simpler. Now all you need are 2x m3 14/16mm bolts and 2x m3 nuts

It slides underneath the two nozzle fans until the two taps fall into the small holes. Attaching the fan duct tighly to the bracket, clamping them around the gantry, makes sure that the two taps can't move up and out of the holes.
The slightly wider spacers also helps aligning the fan duct horizontally.

Note

I designed this specifically for the Wanhao Duplicator 4x and I am not sure if all the dimensions are completely similar on the Replicator 1
For FlashForge or CTC-printers thruit00 made a version that fits better with their geometry: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:350649
