Why?
I wanted to have an acoustic and mainly thermal insulation of the thin plastic side panels of the Qidi Tech X-Max which doesn't look like a giant black foam plate, that has been bungled and glued onto the panels
Features:
- Looks so much better than foam
Requirements / Mounting:
- I printed them using PETG because it handled the thin walls best and its flexibility caused one useful effect: the EVA foam plates bend the walls slightly outwards, providing a jamming effect inside the Qidi's side panels fixing them without glue
- Cut out a corresponding piece of foam (I used EVA foam from a kids puzzle mat because of its stability, bright colors and insulation properties)
- Push it inside the frames
- Clamp the plates inside the Qidi's side panels (see photographs)
Hope you like it, comments and feedback as always very much appreciated… :-)
