Replicator 2 / 2X Chassis corner plugs / passive contaminant reduction

thingiverse

These small plugs fix gaps in the Replicator 2/2X chassis top corners, preventing fume leaks from the Air Scrubber that Really Works (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:125264). Without them, a consistent convection leak creates noticeable odors near the printer. Additionally, these plugs and some simple adjustments can lower external air contamination, even without an active filter. One plug differs for the back right corner's distinct internal clearance. To further reduce rear airflows, use clear acetate film cut to fit the rear hood with double-sided tape. This improvement allows lower scrubber fan rates, enhancing filter efficiency and life. Even without a scrubber, reduced pollution is likely, while the active scrubber eliminates external contamination entirely, even during prolonged printing sessions.
