This is the enclosure I came up with after doing a lot of searching.  The main selling-point of this enclosure is the drawer you can use to pull your printer out of the enclosure for easy access.  This saves me from having to pull out the printer to do any kind of work on it.

This is mainly tailored towards the EU community, as the METOD series is the EU version of the US SEKTION series.

Let's jump right in:

Features:

  • Small but robust 60x60cm  enclosure for the Prusa Mini+
  • pull-out drawer for easy access to your Mini+
  • Additional storage space below the drawer
  • Can be air tight if you use a seal on the front door
Spool dry boxes as shown in the pics:

I'm sure you can find a similar one in your local hardware store.

 

Assembly Notes:

  1. The Glassvik door is 4cm higher than the body - Therefore you have to add feet to the body to raise it up.    ! Do not use the IKEA kitchen feet → The front feet are set back too far and will cause the entire enclosure to tilt forwarder when the drawer is pulled out.  You can use them if you drill another hole and move them as far forward as possible, or just use the feet STL I have posted.
  2. I used the UTRUSTA hinges because they are of a higher quality and have the soft-closing feature.  They do fit into the GLASSVIK doors, however you have to carefully remove the plastic insert which is pressed into the aluminum door frame. 
  3. When attaching the door: One set of hinges holes will match up with the existing holes in the body.  The other set of hinge holes is between two existing hole sets and need to be pre-drilled to attach the hinge.
  4. The printed pieces for the back are either solid or allow for a cable grommet.  This would mean you need to disassemble your power bar, feed the cable through the grommet and then reattach it to your power bar.  This electrical work should only be done by someone with the proper qualifications:

5. The weight of the Mini itself is at the rated limit of the pull-out shelf.  So do not place any concrete pavers on the shelf.

6. The feet and window sensor holder were attached using double-sided tape from 3M.

Happy printing!
