- In this video I will be walking you through how I made my 3D Printer enclosure that has every feature I could think of outside of having a heated chamber. This video is a little longer because I didn’t want to leave anything out from the build or explaining my though process on why I wanted the features I put into this build. Once plans are available for this video I will link them in the Pinned Message.

I got a Prusa Mk3s a year and a half ago. Once I forced myself to learn Fusion 360, the 3D printer has really started to shine. Half of my jigs/fixtures in the shop are 3D printed. All my friends and family still think it’s the coolest thing and I tend to print a lot of stuff for them too. Great video!
Thank you! I’ve been messing around with a few designs myself and have enjoyed it so much I knew there had to be a ton of people doing the same out there, just not many videos out there on it.
I learned fusion and started making mad money selling parts to co workers
Man, I'm watching this video almost 2 years later and I'm blown away by how cool this looks! I really respect the effort that you put into this. I need to make an enclosure for my Ender 3 S1 Pro and will probably use some of the ideas you put into yours. The mounting spot for the RPi is probably my favorite part. Great video, and as someone who struggles to stay organized the cleanliness of your shop is so satisfying, lol.
The cartridge you put on is a 60925 by 3M. That is a p100 only cartridge only good for dust and particulant.
The cartridge you are talking about is a 60926 for multi vapors. The problem with that is the carbon in those cartridges are only rated for 8 to 10 hours before they are saturated. That's at a typical person breathing through them and not a fan. You should build a canister style filtration system so you can pump the air back in the enclosure.
I used to give training on proper respiratory usage including types of cartridges, ratings and intended uses.
Thanks for that, I wasn't sure myself if the cartridge size shown is up to the task, but had nothing but a gut feeling to go by. Could you recommend some parts/plans etc. that would be adequate, and how to estimate service intervals, etc?
Also remember those cartridges are only rated for 8 to 10 hours due to moisture from the wearers breath, rendering them useless after a few hours. This is basically a moisture less environment setup / usage. So those cartridges should last longer than the stated time.
A multi canister style filtration system would be the most efficient if your trying to eliminate odor and harmful gases.
I love this kind of video, where the maker is "imagineering" their way through a project. I'm building an enclosure for two 3D printers right now. I'm a little far down the road to use all of your concepts, but still helpful to see you go through this process. Thanks for sharing and not sugar coating where you might do things differently next time. No first time design is going to be perfect and mistakes or deficiencies are where we learn the most. Cheers!
Thank you! Greatly appreciated!
Awesome built, most thought out complete all in design. Thanks for sharing bro💕
Very cool set up. I'm getting my first printer in the mail any day now so your video was really inspirational for me. My other hobby is fish keeping so I have a lot of aquariums in my house (14) so definitely going to want an enclosure even though my humidity is still in acceptable range in the house. I have a wood shop as well I inherited from my dad but your skills are way beyond mine. Good job man.
Thank you, I appreciate that. Glad it gave you some ideas! They are a fun hobby for sure, a lot of cool things you can make with them.
I've designed drill jigs and marking tools. I love 3d printing it's applicable to nearly everything
Man this checks every box Ive ever had for an enclosure. Thank you for providing such a blueprimt
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
You don't post a lot of videos but man you seem to nail the topics I want to see!
Haha thanks! I plan to get back to one per month moving forward.
@@RingsWorkshop I'm glad to read that. Love the way your mind works and how you flawlessly deliver the content.
Great looking project! I use an off the shelf 9U server cabinet for my printer. Fits like a glove and really cheap too. The filament is stored in a wall cabinet above, with a feed tube running down into the server cab.
I’ll have to look into that!
All the 3d printed parts I have for this enclosure can be found on my thingiverse page listed below. I was still learning 3d modeling at the time so hopefully none are too far off.
www.thingiverse.com/thing:5353805/files
That's a great looking enclosure/cabinet~! My 3d printer just arrived and I can't wait to get started printing in my workshop. I picked up a Prusa MK3S+ kit and it's almost ready to go.
Thank you! I'm excited for you, so many cool things to make to help around the shop!
This is absolutely amazing. Thank you for the video.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
I just found your channel and I love it! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!
That is amazing. Great eye for detail.
Thank you so much!
This is an amazing build man.. I was both happy and sad while watching it.. Happy because of how badass it as, sad because I will never have anything close to it.. :) Keep up the great content!!
Hahaha thank you so much! I appreciate that!
That's bloody impressive !
Haha thank you!!
Just crazy amazed, keep up this good work. Worth the sub
Thank you so much!
Absolutely amazing.
Thank you so much!
I've been casually into 3D printing for about a year or so, and I have made a few hose adapters for some of my woodworking tools. I really like your idea for filtering fumes, I'm going to have to look into that.
Thanks! It definitely helps.
Probably going to have to do this for my MK3s since it is kind of loud in my home office. I have only had my printer for a few weeks but already made additional push sticks, mitre saw stop blocks, and even a dust chute for my mitre saw! For me the 3d printer is an employee that I am putting to work for me!
Definitely quiets it down a lot!
Your cabinet is amazing. I was contemplating building something similar but way less sophisticated. And I still found it to be too much work :-) I'm not printing ABS so I don't need the temperature stability but I was concerned about the humidity a lot but I've calmed down and it turned out to be a non-issue for me.
Apart from home fixing stuff I mainly print router templates for motises, grip hole etc.
Congratulations on your design and execution.
Thank you so much! Ya I have the front panel off most the time, I mainly use PLA as I just haven’t needed the strength of Nylon or ABS for most the stuff I’m doing. I thought I’d use them a lot more but with ease of use of PLA and being fine for what I’ve made so far, I just can’t justify the extra hassle for ABS or Nylon yet. But I’m sure someday I’ll push it further and will want to have that ability.
wow dude fantastic build!
Thanks!
Hats off man i e seen alot of enclosures built 2 of my own in my few years of orimting but thisnis beautiful very good job!!
Thank you!!
nice job man. you got skillz
Thanks!
such a cool video! :) such a nice enclosure rings!
Hahaha thanks buddy! Appreciate it!! Hope all is well with you!
Amazing job! One of the nicest enclosures I've seen. I miss your videos dude.
Thanks, I really appreciate that. I have another video in the works. Just got to be too much trying to get one quality one out every month with everything else I have going on.
@@RingsWorkshop Understandable. I hope everything smooths out for you. You have a lot of fans! 💪
After reading all the comments, I agree with the rest of them in wishing that you could eventually put out the plans for this awesome enclosure. I understand that life gets in the way though. Hopefully you can get around to it and make alot of people happy. Awesome job on this though.
Thanks! I am working on a build currently and after that I am making the plans for this. I really do feel bad about not getting them done. Had a lot of PC issues so did a fresh build recently and have to get everything I use to make videos and make plans reinstalled and setup. I have four sets of plans I will be uploading at that point as I’m behind on quite a few.
very cool project!
could you link the video of the fan and filter?
great video thank you.
Thanks!
Must be nice to have a full wood shop, my dream right there
Mines in a garage, just made it all mobile so I can move it around, someday I want a full shop. Dream of mine for sure.
Brilliant! You really thought of everything. This is one of my next few projects to tackle so I'm happy that I have this to reference. I'm curious to know how do you handle spools that have a small amount of filament left on them? Do you just print with it until it runs out and then swap in a new spool? I've been trying to scour the internet for a good solution. I know there are devices you can add on just before the feed into the printer that are advertised as being able to print with multiple filament colors. You could theoretically print using a bunch of spools that are running low. Those devices seem to be on the pricey side though. I've seen people weld filament together and rewind into a bigger spool too. Anyway, thanks for sharing!
Thank you! I tend to just use it for something small and use as much of it as I can. I didn’t want to mess with trying to weld them together as I’ve heard mixed results and like you said, pricey. I normally use it to calibrate something. Temp test, stringing, overhangs, layer adhesion, esteps, calibration cube, etc.
Good video, I like the cabinet.
Thank you!
@@RingsWorkshopSubscribed, btw. :)
@@MakerViking thanks, greatly appreciated!
Hi, i was looking for the plans, didn't find them on your Homepage. Great Design
Haven’t made them yet, they are next on the list but not sure when they will be ready. My apologies.
VERY NICE
Thank you!
As always, quality work man. Love your content.
Do you leave this in your workshop? Do you have any issues with dust getting in when you're using your other tools?
Thank you! This is in my basement so no sawdust around.
You should use a bowden tube mounted onto the carriage . That way, the filament friction is always the same and the carriage won't yank the spool during a fast travel
Please do post the plans on your site!
Excellent build. Very well thought out design. Do yourself a favor and buy a premium blade for your tablesaw. Keep the diablo for 2x4s and such. You'll get a clean glue up line from the first cut. If you get burns on the wood your feeding it too slowly, this comes from a less quality blade that warps when pushed hard.
I've printed a few things useful for the shop. Best one was a bullet collator for by reloader. Saved me enough to pay for the printer inc. mods. Ender 3 V2
Yup I have a few Frued’s now, and a new table saw since this build I believe as well.
Nice setup, while I do not favor fully enclosed systems, as this has more cons than pros, I do like your thought process in your cabinet approach. The best way to deal with print fumes is to exhaust outside. I don't have that issue because my machines are in a dedicated room that has a huge wall exhaust fan, and it sucks not only hot air, but dust, and sometimes too much AC when I have the AC running. The best way to print ABS is to concentrate the hot air just around the print area. Keeping a fully enclosed machine, even with the power supply outside, you are still making the steppers and anythig else that is inside it hotter than they need to be.
Appreciate it! I know it’s not the ideal setup in a perfect world, but for it needing to be in a living space and not being able to exhaust outside it was the best solve I could find. Good advice on ABS, the nice thing with the side panels is I can leave them open a crack at the top so the bottom stays warmer by the bed but hot air can still escape if needed at the top.
@@RingsWorkshop you could use the hot air to the benefit of keeping the top located filaments dried.
Nice. I primarily print with PLA and would be overkill but it would be great to have a choice between filaments. Make your feed direct drive on your printers. It'll save you a lot of headache.
I talked about that and showed parts of me switching it to direct drive in the video. So glad I did that.
Would love to see the plans for this item. I am currenty working on a new workshop and I would love to have 1 if not multple of these enclosures for the 3d printer. Would possibly need to make adjustments to fit a CR10-v2
Had a lot pop up this summer unfortunately so I’m behind on about everything by months, really want to get them done. After next video that will be out in November at some point, they are next.
Just found you and cool video this is something I would love to make but I think I'm looking to make something that will be able to server a couple printers. I have a Qidi Tech X-Max that I have done a lot of 3d printed mods too and as well installed the all metal hot end from Qidi Tech to make life easier printing high temp things like nylon and carbon fiber stuff. I also have an Ender 5 Pro that has all the 3d printed mods as well and just a simple conversion from bowden tube to direct drive with all the stock parts. I've also put my spare build plate that came with my Qidi Tech on my Ender 5 and that was a game changer due to the stock Ender build plate being poo. I would really like to make something that resembles just the top portion of your chamber that holds the spools and have it hanging by some chain or maybe some plastic coated cable with a pully system to raise and lower it for obvious reasons. Nice job and thank you for the ideas
Thank you! I also hope to someday have multiple and have already been thinking how I could make it better and service multiple printers at once.
With your Raspberry Pi inside the same chamber as your printer, do you ever find that your pi gets too hot and the CPU throttling kicks in? Or, is the air circulating enough inside for that to not be a problem?
Awesome build and is giving me a few ideas about doing my own!
Thank you! No I haven’t had any issues with it, I thought about moving it but since I wasn’t actively heating it, I wasn’t as concerned. That said, I haven’t done more than a 10 hour print with all the panels on yet, as most my longer ones are PLA and I leave on of the panels off so it doesn’t get too hot.
Thanks for video and your thoughts.
I recently bought 3d printer and I’m in the process of making my own enclosure as people favorite IKEA LACK is pretty shitty (v1 & v2) and I feel like building them is more less just waste of plastic as both versions lack few features I want.
I thought about using that system as well. Sorry for the delayed response, had quite a few comments not show up in my app for the last few months and I just realized it.
another thing to think about, is if you want this to be a heated chamber then having the enclosure envelope the entire printer means the electronics are being heated, greatly reducing their life. Ideally the motors, the motherboard, the psu would all be separate from the heated area. a good heated enclosure would be just around the print volume. Which isnt easy to achieve with the motors being so close to the build plate, but theres usually enough space to build something out of say polycarbonate and insulate with some thin insulation with reflective material.
Bewtiful..now if only wood price would drop. Trying to do a hybrid enclosure which encloses my 2 CR10s Pro while incorporating a workbench and garage style tote storage. My estimate is roughly $250 right now. Had I done this 2 months a ago it would have been $150.
Ya pricing is all over the place. One reason I went with what I had on hand, even though it wasn’t the best option.
Awesome build, as always. Having recently found time to get my 5 year old printer out after the move, and get it going, I was looking for a cabinet solution. This is great.
Can you tell me a little more about how you got octoprint on the screen? I’m running Octoprint through a RP3b, and using a phone app to control, but that touchscreen was very cool! Would love to do that. Thanks!
Thank you! I also have a RP3b. I use octodash to get the UI which I love using. Brings the whole setup together I think.
@@RingsWorkshop awesome- I’ll look into it. Appreciate it.
Are you using a 3.5” or 7” lcd?
@@neilphillips3193 5”. I think I have it linked in the description.
@@RingsWorkshop saw it, and bought through affiliate. Thanks
@@neilphillips3193 thank you so much! Appreciate that.
you should add a carrot feeder between the filament chamber and printer to make life easier
muy chévere!!!
Now to get OctoPrint to work with my MakerBot Method X
Any idea when you will have plans available? Love the design you have here... I was thinking about doing a lack enclosure, but want something nicer like what you have done here. I am thinking about doing it with ceder paneling to help even more with moisture.
I will have them done this month. Have some time off work starting end of next week and I have four sets of plans I’ll be getting ready to post.
@@RingsWorkshopWhere i can find the plans? I was getting into the website which you provide in description about the plans but cant find anything on it.
@@viktorkosturkov5866 I failed everyone and still haven’t made them. Have some time off soon I’m hoping to catch up on videos and plans but we will see how that goes. My apologies for still not having them done.
@@RingsWorkshop No problem, will try to design something different. Thanks anyway and nice build.
That´s awesome, I build something similar. But since I had almost no tools beside a power drill I used 3 IKEA Lack tables which I stacked and placed PC panels in between, used LED lighting up top and made small cabinet in the bottom. I also added wheels to easily move the whole thing. With the new printers they shake too much so I added a pavement plate, basically a slab of concrete inside on a rubber mat which solved the issue. Cost me like 50 bucks and looks pretty great.
Thanks! I had contemplated the Lack tables as well.
@@RingsWorkshop Your solution is better. Not only quality wise but you also most likely have more space inside and you designed your dimensions exactly as needed. Today with my capabilities I would also build one from scratch instead. MDF is not a bad choice btw, he fire hazard is lower than you might think. For one you can impregnate the wood with a fire retardant or with fire retardant paint, cost 10 bucks for a 400ml rattle can. But even if left alone, wood does not burs as well as people might think. Once charred the black surface gives you good resistance. That´s also why so many buildings are made out of wood and still fulfill the code. You can add a fire alarm inside they don´t cost much and give you extra safety. You can also add an automatic extinguisher inside, or both.
@@sierraecho884 ya, I just figured people would comment on it so I tried to get ahead of it haha
@@RingsWorkshop Well done mate =)
Thanks for sharing this with us, have you made the plans yet? I certainly would love to build this and stop having to buy new filaments because of the humidity
Should have them ready end of this month / early Feb.
@@RingsWorkshop did you ever get plans made up for this
@@taylorb9667 I have not. I’ve been away for a while, took on a big project and have had a lot of changes with my job so have had little free time to work on things for the channel. It’s still on the list, but I have no eta, my apologies.
@@RingsWorkshop no worries I hope everything irl is getting better!
Looking awesome. When can I buy the drawings?
This looks amazing! Are the plan’s available yet? I don’t see them on your website
No. All the 3d printable parts are available on my thingiverse for free though because of the delay in the plans. Next video should be done shortly, these plans after that.
man this is truly insane in all of the best ways, thank you for this. currently working on replicating your filament system in my enclosure. im having some trouble though and could really use your help! Sorry if ive missed something but ive replayed the video many ttimes and still cant find a resolution.
where are the main and short bolt encorporated? as well as filament holder cap, bearing mounta, and bearing cover?
the names feel self explanatory but im not the brightest when it comes to building things and cant find where you encorporate them witthin the video. All i see is the filament cleaner assembly and the assembly of the bearing and threaded elevation setup.
so theres overall 32 pneumaatic fittings needed?
Ive printed most of the items for this build but am stumped on this part, any info will be of help, thank you!
Some of the hidden parts were used with the initial setup that I scrapped and went on to the one that used normal bearings. May be from that. I don’t have the fusion 360 file handy, I don’t see it on my thingiverse, can you email me a picture of the parts you are referring to? It should be 32 fittings, correct.
thanks for the reply! ive just emailed you more info@@RingsWorkshop
@@RingsWorkshop man i wouldve just given up by now but this is the last step im way too far in, no reply to email unless i missed it. ive tried redesigning a bearing cap and printed mutliple samples trying threading but notthing that works yet, but im also very unexperienced with designing myself i just figured desperate times. the issue is that the bearing cap has no way to clip or fit onto the end of the end of the Main Bolt. theres a very small circle in the center of both which makes me think im supposed to do something with tthat hole to make them attach? but i have no idea what since the visual in the tutorial is catering to a different outdated design compared to the files. seriously appreciate any help you could give me at this point. i know, it sounds so simple but i promise ive spent hours with no luck maybe im just dumb but i just need to move on its been way too long for me working on this
are you getting close to posting the plans? I have been checking the comments for several months hoping to see an update. looking forward to an update. thanks for sharing this build.
I FINALLY got the video done so the plans are next up on the docket. My month or two break turned into a year of doing other things around the house so my sincere apologies on the delay.
the piece you added to the top of the printer its lare and round so it lets all your filament connect down to one what's this devices called and also where did you buy it. I like this idea very much.
Designed and printed it.
@@RingsWorkshop can i buy one its a great idea im in the middle of a build myself and could really use it.
@@Traveltech360 I appreciate it. I don’t actually sell the parts but I have all the pieces available for download on thingiverse. The link is in the pinned comments of the video. Hope this helps.
That enclosure deserves a direct extruder printer lol, awesome job!
Hahah thanks! Appreciate it!
Hey I love it I want to get some one to build this where can I get the blue print for ur entire set up please I am new. I will be buying a ender 5 pro.
Thanks!! Hoping to have the plans ready within the next two weeks!
Hey, are there any plans available for this, I know it was going to be posted in a pinned comment but I can not find it.
Also, amazing cabinet, definitely will be evaluating prices of materials in my area to build it.
Not yet. Had a ton of stuff come up this summer and I’m behind on plans and videos unfortunately. Hoping to get caught up over next few months. My apologies.
@@RingsWorkshop Hey man no need for apologies. Thanks for the reply.
cool
Thanks!
I already designed my cabinet I’m more interested in where you got the plate for the fan to attach the respirator filter
This was the one I used:
www.thingiverse.com/thing:3331276
Do you leave the fume extractor on during the whole print, or just after the print when you open the enclosure?
Whole print. It doesn’t move air outside so it doesn’t effect the temp at all. Just helps gather fumes during print. Because it’s enclosed I can’t really hear it running too much either.
Really like this Enclosure but i dont see the plan on your website. I want to know if i can fit a prusa XL in here. I think it would be perfect
I still haven’t made the plans yet, it’s on my long list of things I want to work on but haven’t gotten to yet. I have a bad habit of starting something new before finishing the previous project. My apologies.
I built an enclosure mainly to keep the kitten off the printer. I haven't started printing yet, but it's not air tight and it doesn't have ventilation set up. I'm contemplating if I should be concerned about fumes.
PLA isn’t bad, it’s when you get into the more durable ABS and beyond things that I was more concerned.
What blade yyou use in the table saw to cleam the edges up?
Sanding disc you can get for your table saw.
@@RingsWorkshop where did you get it from?
@@S.JCarpentry sorry for the delayed response, ordered it on Amazon. Mine was a cheaper flat dish, although you can get the one with a bevel is nicer but costs more.
Do you think this is build-able without a table saw? I have miter and skill saw. I also have a router but I doubt that would have any structural use.
You would need something to rip the pieces down, if you had a circular saw you could make a straight edge to get the job done.
Sir, PLEASE for your sake if you care for your fingers, use a guide tool instead of your bare hands on that table saw! I had a bad accident 2 years ago and I am very lucky to still have my fingers. I urge anyone reading this to not be negligent like I was.
I use a push stick a lot of the time, if I use one when it’s a larger board it feels unsafe as I have less control over it. It’s also the reason I bought a SawStop, but that was after filming this video. Awful that you had an accident.
Happened to my grandpa not that long ago. Last cut and lost his push stick. Trip to the er
I want to make this but I can’t find the plans on your site. Great enclosure
I unfortunately did not make plans on this yet. I hope to someday but I haven’t yet. My apologies.
I have a creality ender 3 v2, i didn't use it for over a year, my filaments have all gotten a lot of humidity and i cant seem to print anymore, should i throw them away or is there a way to salvage them again ?
There are ways to salvage but I’ve never tried it myself. I know some people use food dehydrators or have a special box that will suck moisture out, think sun Lu makes one. Again, not sure how well it works but worth a shot if you have a good amount of filament. Not sure if there is a point where they are too far gone or not.
Dang - was looking forward to buying your plans - curious - what happened to 'em?
Still in progress. Had a lot go on over the summer and haven’t done a video or much in the shop for a bit. However all of that is done so Monday I get back to work on next video and those plans are the next thing that will be done. They will be done by year end. Just embarrassingly far behind on what I had planned to get done.
@@RingsWorkshop no worries dude! Looking forward to seeing them!
Does anyone have the link for the fillament roller rack? Ive been having a hard time finding this one.
Link to my thingiverse site is in the pinned comment for the video which has the download link.
I´m curious how you felt wen Bambu Lab X1C poped up.
Want one. Will likely be my next printer.
Can you share the file for the filter adaptor for the fan filter? Can't find that one you used, only smaller ones.
This is the one I used.

Awesome design! Are the plans available anywhere yet?
No. I’m the worst. Haven’t done as much in the shop lately however just started a new project last week so hopefully this gets me back up and going. Miss it.
No worries, man! Life gets pretty busy sometimes. I know how that goes. Don't be too hard on yourself. I was hoping to build this sometime soon. Looking forward to buying the plans as soon as they're available!
Are the plans for this still available? I couldn't find them under /plans on your site.
Sorry for the delayed response. I never made plans for them, my apologies, it is on the to do list but I haven’t touched it in a while. If/when I make them I’ll put a pinned comment on the video.
Thought of everything.
I tried hahaha. Only wanted to make it once so didn’t want to leave anything out.
I'd be interested in knowing what you think and what you'd do different after using your enclosure for a year.
Biggest thing would be to have the filament feed down the center vs the outsides to reduce friction and then add doors or some other way to swap out the silica crystals.
Does anyone know where that filament crown he got is from? i cant find it anywhere and its not linked in the description.
I designed and printed it. It’s listed on my thingiverse which is linked in the description of the video.
Where is the "Add to cart" button?!?!?! Sick build. Wish I had to tools.
😂😂. Thanks I appreciate it!
How is that MDF holding up? any safety concerns or issues with heat?
Good, no issues whatsoever but I mostly print pla
@@RingsWorkshop have you tried ABS with it at all? thats my main look into this build. Ill mainly be printing pla but im also tired of my office being a sauna
@@MegaShadow29 I have printed a few times with it. Had mixed results, mainly due to my impatience and trying to print it too fast without enough bed adhesion so corners warped
Was that too able to keep filament dry?
Pretty well, ya. Not as much as an actual dryer obviously, but night and day from them just sitting out. Noticeable difference between the top area that’s mostly sealed off than the main chamber below.
those clamps in the back ground 3d printed?
Nah those are normal clamps.
Went to your website to buy the plans, but they're no longer there?? Is a V2.0 coming?
Actually haven’t finished them. Top 3 on to do list, currently battling what looks like carpal tunnel in right wrist so projects, videos editing and making plans has been a bit of a set back. Hoping to know more next week.
looks like you are building Mother Brain from Metroid
Are there plans for this build in the works? Would love to make this.
They are on the list, yes! There will be four coming out in June, this one for sure.
@@RingsWorkshop Awesome. Would using wagos suffice for wiring? As I don't know how solder yet
Excuse me, are the plans available?
Good video, wish there was a beter view over the entire thing and functionalities.
This thing is AWESOME! Any chance you are selling them? :)
Thanks!! Will have plans at some point, but not the actual unit haha.
@@RingsWorkshop That's a shame. I live in a condo and don't have a place to do wood work, but this case is the best I've seen anywhere. An idea to solve your problem with it being hard to get to the filaments, what if you put them on the left and right, with wing like doors instead of a big top door?
@@TDSWaldo I had that as the initial plan and didn’t like the look, but I do think it would be a much better idea.
I don't see the plans for this enclose on the site. Am I missing something?
They will be available sometime in June, I am hoping to have four project plans ready to go.
Unless I looked away at the right moment, I didn’t see any images of the full completed build. The drawings looked great but I really wanted to see what the completed build ended up looking like.
At the end before I went over things I would change I did a top to bottom (or bottom to top, I forget now) shot of it and then some final features and it printing. The thumbnail also has a finished photo and I have it on my Instagram as well. Hope that helps.
Any chance of the plans sir?
At some point I will have them. I have all the 3d printed parts available for download, just haven’t made the plans for the cabinet yet. The plan is to get next video out over next two weeks and have these plans out shortly after that. Had a lot of stuff pop up the last 6 months and wasn’t able to do much for the channel unfortunately.
3d printing newb here.... How come people don't put some dessicant in the main chamber of their printer enclosure? Wouldn't that help keep the filament better, especially if you don't use the printer every day?
If it was closed off, yes. But the main chamber is open most of the time so it would be circulating air way too much to do anything.
@@RingsWorkshop Thx for the reply.... why is the main chamber open all the time?
@@peterchang7646 I mainly print with PLA, which you don’t want to get too hot because it can warp, or droop. So I leave a panel off most of the time when I’m printing with that. It also is open when I’m working on things on it (changing nozzle, cleaning the bed, tightening belts, etc.) so air would be in and out way too much. You could lower the floor I suppose of the top chamber so less is exposed underneath though.
Where are the final result shots? Is this only part one?
19:03 displays the final shot of it and final features I finished up with.
I'm not seeing the plans for this on the website. Am i missing something?
No, they are still on the to do list. Next video should be out next couple weeks and then these plans are next. Just way behind.
When are the plans going up?
If missed like three deadlines I’ve wanted to have it done by as I’m backed up on things. Next month or two they will be out. Hold me to that lol.
Bonjour y a t il des plan
What happened to the plans for this cabinet on your website?
They are in progress, not complete yet.
