This text appears to be a detailed description of a DIY printer enclosure project, including its design, components, and technical specifications. Here is a summary: **Project Overview** The author built a 3D printer enclosure using various parts, including a Raspberry Pi, fans, temperature sensors, and power supplies. **Components** * The enclosure uses 4 small brackets to hold it in place. * A temp controller is used to control the temperature of the printer. * Three quiet fans are used for exhaust. * A Raspberry Pi is used for automation and control. * A camera is attached to the Pi for monitoring. * Power comes from a single external 12V power supply. **Design** The enclosure was designed using F360, with parts such as brackets, temperature controller brackets, and intake vents created using this software. The author also used OSCAD to design some of the components. **Technical Specifications** * The printer uses an Original Prusa i3 MK2. * Print settings include no rafts or supports, 0.15 or 0.2 resolution, and 15% infill. * The enclosure was printed using eSun PLA+. **Future Improvements** The author plans to improve the enclosure by adding safety features such as a smoke detector and controlling the fans via a relay board. **Miscellaneous** The author mentions some issues they encountered during the project, including undervoltage warnings on the Pi when a display is connected. They also recommend against using certain power adapters and suggest alternative solutions.
