a flightcase for a prusa

thingiverse

To create an eye-catching printer enclosure, I built a flightcase that meets specific requirements. It had to look cool and not be square, could print even when closed, featured an L-shape design with space for a spool holder, and included windows to watch the printing process. Made from Adam Hall flightcase material, the cost was approximately 180€. Seeking assistance from local theater or P.A. firms is recommended if needed. Assemble the wood according to the provided plan (adjustments may be necessary for different thicknesses), nail the box together with thin nails, add closing lids and corner profiles. To create a 135° angle, cut a wooden block in half at a 22.5° angle and use it as a guide for bending aluminum. Install corner balls, butterfly catches, and handles as desired. Optional upgrades include adding windows, foam insulation, a power supply chamber, feet, corner braces, sunken handles, and a USB connector dish.
