Skirts for Plexiglass in Lack Prusa Enclosure

thingiverse

Update 2: I've installed skirts around the top of the three solid plexiglass sides, as well as from the bottom halfway up all legs. This modification has made a significant difference in the enclosure air temperature for PLA prints with doors closed - increased by 32C sustained to 36C sustained. I'm eager to try ABS prints where I have more familiarity with air temperature behavior during prints and an actual desire to increase ambient air temperature! Skirts for bottoms are printed but unsure if whole top lift will work out with minimal clearance while maintaining quick reassembly of the enclosure. Redesigning skirts specifically for lower interface of plexiglass sheets is a consideration. Update 1: I've increased skirt length by 2.5mm each to account for small gap in latest model. Screws tightened everything up nicely over previous version! _____________________________________________________________ Skirts with screw holes are designed to improve draft protection and eliminate rattling plexiglass. A minor increase in airspace temperature is expected - around 5C or less. Quieter enclosure and slightly improved aesthetics are anticipated outcomes. Custom doorknobs incorporating skirt and handle into a single piece will be completed soon. More details to follow.
