Good video, I have been looking to upgrade since I've been using a medium Lowe's cardboard packing box with the flaps taped open and one side cut out so it can be pushed over and not interfere with the spool feeder in the back. It is obviously not perfect because every side isn't closed, but it was about $4 + 2 ft of tape. My printer has a camera so I just watch that as it prints because the view is 100% blocked. So far no surface issues! I have had some bed adhesion problems with ABS, but that was eventually solved by just using a raft.
bro as i seen your printers in background and they are at one solid shelf, why don't you simply use it as aluminium extrusion, and simply apply the sheets over back & sides and use acrylic as lift up slide in drawer ?
Even with an enclosure you get inconsistent cooling from the bed moving back and forth 😢 I found I had to passively warm the enclosure in my g-code for 10 min to help further warm. And if printing multiple parts I would put them on the X plain to prevent the bed from moving as much
Yeah Canada in rough. A lack kit on etsy (panels/printed parts/table) is in the $300 range and prusa enclosure pushing $500 before shipping. Sorry to hear so
U can simply place the side and top panels between the slots in the aluminium extrusions , they'll be locked in place once the frame is assembled 😊. In that way the tapes can be avoided which will probably be a problem in the long run.

The "E Box" E stands for enclosure

Yessir. Heat soak is mandatory, cartesian or corexy
Meanwhile my ender 3 pro that i print ABS on i just stuck in a closet that i was already using for filament storage.
Ah, affordable you say. 286 CAD for me. Ill go with the lack

Came in to say that, plus it will look much better
Already tried. They vibrate.
