I thought it would be nice to replace the ugly useless handles with simple covers. Remove the screws and handles, and set aside. The covers gently pry out with a small slotted screwdriver if needed. Or, tap a screw hole in the middle and lift out with plyers (print new more stylish ones after moving).

I printed on my older QIDI X-Plus in silver ABS in “Quick” profile (0.25mm) with a 5mm brim. I broke off the brim, then used a metal rasp and an angled foam sponge to clean the bottom edge. I figured PLA would sag so I avoided it. Other filament types might work. 

Tip: print upside down on the QIDI Plus 4 PEI plate for nice a textured look, of remix and add a pattern.
