Printer enclosure

thingiverse

I made this enclosure to help with laminar heating of the printed items. I used some old 9 mm pine ply wood for the enclosure and printed all the other parts to keep the wood panels together. The company from whom I bought the printer encourages the use of and enclosure when printing ABS. I also made the enclosure so I can print in my room without disturbance when sleeping and working. I have a short video to demonstrate the difference it makes when the door is open compared to closed. I will upload Cad drawing of the enclosure wall, top and bottom soon. If you have any questions feel free to comment and make suggestions. Print Settings Printer Brand: RepRap Printer: Prusa I3 Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Doesn't Matter Resolution: 0.2 Infill: 20 % Notes: The Brackets where printed but it take quite some time to print. If you dont have time to print all the brackets you could just by them from a local DIY store. I am not going to put instructions up since I think is it quite obvious from the picture how the enclosure fits together and also there is no set way of how it should look and work. I will however help out if someone asks so in the comments. How I Designed This the Filament holder That I am currently using is going to change. The current design is a mix of a thingy that I found and my own design. The deign I used is quite large but this allows for upgrading your printer to a bigger system without the need to rebuild an enclosure or enlarge the current one.
