I know people have been waiting patiently, so here they are... side covers for your Da Vinci printer! They will prevent small plastic pieces from entering the gap on both sides of the printer. The covers snap into place via the ribs on the side panel. These side covers are designed to work in conjunction with my previous corner cap designs: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:699003 They seem suitable for the AiO model as well, but you will need to cut the right panels to fit correctly. The back of the printer has a gap that can be addressed with a simple wooden or plastic board. Now that we have this sorted out, enjoy your new side covers! The instructions are as follows: These covers consist of eight separate parts: 1 left-top piece, 1 left-bottom piece, 1 right-top piece, and 1 right-bottom piece, along with two end cap_2 pieces and two end_cap_1 pieces. To assemble these side covers, use acetone to weld the end caps together or attach them using adhesive of your choice. You can also opt to weld the half-covers together for added durability but keep in mind that they may become more difficult to remove if necessary. If you have a Da Vinci 2.0 Duo printer like me, it's crucial that you print only two side covers at a time to avoid the risk of one of the print heads colliding with the metal retainers that hold the hot plate in place. I can attest to this unfortunate event having occurred during my own experience. Regarding the AiO model, it will be necessary to modify the right side covers to accommodate the scanner component.
