Sovol SV01 Enclosure 24" x 24" 1/8 Plastic Case

thingiverse

I remixed the enclosure parts (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3794334) so it will work with 1/8 plastic sheets. I was being cheap and didn't want to buy thicker plastic, but it seems to hold up well for small to mid-size 3D printers. You need to use the 3D printed middle braces because thin 1/8 plastic is flexible and leaves gaps in the middle. I used PETG plastic sheets and not Lexan or Plexiglass, because PETG won't crack. I was rough with my building and eyeballed most of my measurements, so PETG plastic is more forgiving for me. If you're curious about the door size, I measured 3 inches from each side and grabbed a random round object off my workbench to use as a guide for the corners. Make sure you use something big enough where the jig saw can make the turn in one cut. Purchased Material: (5) 24" x 24" 1/8 thick plastic sheets (96) M4 x 10mm screws (includes 8 screws on the bottom that might not be needed) (97) M4 Nuts (includes 8 nuts on the bottom that might not be needed) (7) M4 x 16mm screws (1) M4 x 25mm screw (22mm long would be ideal, but I only have one) (4) M4 lock nuts (a standard nut will work too) Printed Parts: (8) Corner parts (Corner.stl) (3) Hinge sets (Hinge – Door.stl, Hinge.stl) (1) Latch set (Latch.stl, Latch – Door.stl, Lever.stl) (8) Mid Braces (Middle.stl) Update (Jan 02 2020): I just noticed I forgot to include the Mid Brace STL file. Sorry! I finally put a top on the enclosure and if you use the Mid Braces (Middle.stl) on the top, it will really stiffen everything up. Because of the 1/8 thin plastic I used, I thought I needed to support the top with some wood or aluminum extrusions if I plan to put the filament spool holder on it. So far, it seems to hold up extra weight without any additional support. It's up to you what spool holder you want to use, but here is a link to one I printed. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2479238 This is the PTFE PC4-M6 Quick Fitting connectors I used for the top of the enclosure: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3265994
