The Stuva cabinet from IKEA is the ideal starting point for building an enclosure for your 3D printer. Unfortunately the box is too small to fit most common printers (I have an Ender 3 Pro). To mitigate some of the space issues I designed this cutout for the back wall to allow the cable(chains) to move freely.
This is part of my project to build an enclosure for my Ender 3 Pro out of an IKEA Stuva cabinet. Click here to view my collection.
Print Settings
Printer Brand:
Creality
Printer:
Ender 3 Pro
Rafts:
No
Supports:
No
Resolution:
0.20 mm Layer Height
Infill:
100% (no infill needed, only printing thin(ish) walls)
Filament: Tianse PLA Red
Notes:
I had a 0.5 mm nozzle installed while building my enclosure, so I designed this to work best with that type of nozzle (1 mm wall thickness -> 2 lines per wall).
Keep that in mind, if your slicer tries adding a third wall to make up for the difference in nozzle size.
Post-Printing
Installation
After marking the location where I wanted it, I used a jigsaw to cut out part of the back wall. Using the printed part as a jig I marked the locations for the screw holes and drilled them out.
I used M3 screws, some washers and bolts to mount it to the back wall.
If you are concerned about any dust entering your enclosure you could add a beat of silicone to completely seal the part.
