I've noticed improvement in the quality of my prints, but if there are very small layers that needs full speed of the fan when I print it using the marlin firmware It tells me that cold extrusion is not allowed

Glad to hear the design is working for you. Try Eric the creator of Marlin on FreeNode #reprap. His IRC nickname is EvdZ. I haven't had this firmware issue. - Brad

I printed your Fan Duct, I'll try to use this to print small gears. I'm considering the decition to print your last model of fan duct but I have a prusa mendel v1.0 of lulzbot, could it fit?

If you are referencing http://www.thingiverse.com/thi...
I don't think it will work with the Budaschnozzle as currently designed.  The Buda is too wide.  I will look into mod-ing my design.

so you connect your fan to D9 of your RAMPS and that fan is controlled with configurations set in Slic3r?

Yes, that is how I connect my fan.
Also M106 SXXX where x is between 100-255 allows for variable speed and M107 for fan off.
Hope this helps - Brad

is the fan in your design set to dissipate heat or cool?

I used the fan to cool during bridging and while printing small parts.  I have since moved to a more direct fan duct.
