Overview: This is suitable for those who purchased the original DIY enclosure kit from Flashforge and are looking for a more convenient and practical version of the printed parts. The PETG plastic weight is approximately 600 grams for the entire set.

UPD: added skewed version as in the photo

UPD2: fixed thermo height

Key Features:

  • Requires only the original panel set from Flashforge for assembly
  • Low plastic consumption (~600 grams)
  • Fast printing time (~12 hours)
  • Previous version's assembly issues have been fixed
  • Filament holder not included; use this one: Filament Holder

Manufacturing Recommendations:

  • Calibrate the printer: steps, plastic shrinkage, and flow. This is critical for large models, as linear dimension differences can reach up to 2 mm if the printer is poorly calibrated. Proper flow settings are essential for a tight and hassle-free dovetail assembly.
  • Print side panels first. Layer height should be 0.2 mm to ensure correct dimensions; otherwise, polycarbonate may not fit into the slot during assembly. Use 10 mm mouse ears to reduce the risk of detachment, and 3D glue for reliability.
  • Install side panels before further printing to reduce the risk of parts detaching from the bed. Trust my experience; I wasted about 250 grams of plastic for this reason.
  • Print riser elements and other parts. Layer height can be increased to 0.24 mm, with a simultaneous increase in line width to 0.6 mm to avoid issues with overhangs.
  • Install the drag chain and filament sensor on the printed insert.
  • Glue magnets and assemble the riser. It is then simply installed on top of the printer.

 

P.S. I didn't print this set entirely, as it was refined during production. However, I aimed to fix all mismatches in the original models.
