If you have a Flashforge Adventurer 5M, you likely noticed that there are bays in the back for a filterable exhaust. I didn't really feel like going down a rabbit hole of hooking up fans to the printer's power supply, as I just got the printer and don't feel like taking it all the way apart yet, so I designed this box to hold the filter cartridge you can get for these printers that mounts two 4010 fans to push air through the filter. I just mounted this to the wall of the DIY enclosure kit with some mounting tape, which also acts as the spacer to allow air to move through the filter. I was worried the small space behind the filter wouldn't be enough to allow for proper ventilation, but so far it seems to be working really well. I just plugged the two vents in the back of the printer to keep it fully enclosed.
This project will require 4 M4 bolts, 4 M4 heat set inserts, and at least 8 M3 bolts. The holes for the M3 screws are meant to have them thread directly in, not for a heat set insert. You'll of course also need 2 4010 fans which are very common in the 3d printing world. I used 24V ones, but it really doesn't matter. I'm actually running them on 12V as it's the only wall wart I could find that I could tear apart for these purposes, and it's still doing just fine.
And of course, you'll need filter cartridges: https://a.co/d/ifNtXBm
I suggest printing in PETG or ABS/ASA if you plan on printing filaments that require a warmer environment.
