Yet Another Ikea Lack Enclosure (Wanhao Duplicator Plus)

thingiverse

Looking for a Wanhao Duplicator Plus enclosure, I discovered numerous designs utilizing the Ikea Lack table. My primary inspiration came from Kirby Downey's design on myminifactory.com, but several aspects of his design were missing that I wanted in mine. His designs are beautiful yet difficult to edit, so I created mine from scratch. I disliked the asymmetrical design that placed all height in the feet and thought altering it to have matching pieces at the top and bottoms of the legs would provide a natural way to hold plexiglass sides. Here are the goals I had with my design: symmetric design built-in wall holders mount on top of existing computer desk integrated hinges, door stops, mounting points I created several different designs and modified them as I went. Thanks to many great designs, I didn't have to start from scratch. Specifically, I used or incorporated the following objects: Lack Filament Grommet (thingiverse.com/1821844) Quick Hinge (thingiverse.com/47591) Door Handle (thingiverse.com/36465) For the most part, everything worked the first time. I will be uploading v2 designs that fix a few of the issues I encountered in assembly. The two main changes are: 1) adding mounting points to the inside of the corner bracket to securely attach to the table top and base; 2) adding stops to the hinge bottoms to hold the door in place without screws. The pin on my quick hinges proved too brittle and broke off each hinge. I used a drill bit to drill out the broken part and cleaned up the hole on the other part, then screwed a simple machine screw into each and it works perfectly.
