DIY Printrbot Hinged Spool Box

thingiverse

I created a box for my Printrbot Original to facilitate transportation. The power supply (PSU) is placed above the back overhang of the print bed to save space (refer to pictures). When the lid is elevated, the bed can fully extend forward and the lid functions as a spool holder. Closed, the container looks inconspicuous for university room inspections and has a top handle for easy carrying. The USB cable and power cord can also be stored inside. Constructed from leftover wood pieces, this project is considered "work in progress" since it must be customized to fit different printer sizes and materials. I am unable to credit the original designer of the PSU template as I do not remember where I found it; however, I posted it here because it was challenging to locate online.
