I wanted a tall flat-packable removable enclosure with a transparent front for my ender 3 s1 pro… So instead of doing the sensible thing of buying a tent or using a cardboard box I decided to invest way too much time making a solution that works probably about the same.
I used 36x48" trifold foam poster boards cut to size, velcro straps, and 3d printed brackets and caps.
3 x 36x48" trifold poster boards $28
8 x Strong velcro strips $8
1 x 24x36" 1/8" thick Polycarbonate Panel $23
Total = $59
The enclosure keeps operating temps around 90F (32C).
With this enclosure I have been able to successfully print ABS parts without warping.
3D printed parts I used:
2 x corner for the rear corners
3 x straight braced 1 for the middle rear and 1 for each side
2 x front brace for the edge next to the polycarbonate
4 x straight_double_210mm for the rear middle seam
1 x straight_double_trim cut to final size needed to plug the hole (optional)
2 x cap_174mm for the rear (optional)
6 x cap_152mm for the sides (optional)
