THANK YOU for posting this ! Just discovered your channel. Immediately subscribed. Congratulations on your modular design and on the fact YOU address the VOC and particle emissions of FDM printers, that other (bigger) channels avoid talking about.
I like this actually looking at making a new enclosure to stack my 3d printers on top of each other to save some space, do you think this would be possible with this design
Cool, but not mentioning that the models cost $48 alone and requiring 5 KG of filament up front is a big no no for me. I think those grow tent/pop up enclosures would be cheaper, even if you were to buy multiple down the line.
I was going to make the same comment. In NZ its way over the 200nzd and for that I can even buy the enclosure from Creality if I want to. I think it is worth though if you have multiple printers then you buy the project once and use it for different designs.
Yeah, better to just get some aluminum extrusion. I can get 6 meters of 20x20 for $65. Only thing is that it won't be as modular, but I don't care for rn. All up including fittings, brackets, panels etc, it's in the same ballpark figure. And much more rigid.
5kg is a lot of filament, and making it with PLA doesn't make much sense, since most people want an enclosure to print abrasive materials like ABS/ASA at high temperatures, which would melt the PLA pretty quickly. And printing with PETG at $30-$35 a kg, would mean $150-175, not cheap. With that said, it could be a lot more affordable though if one used PET from recycled plastic bottles and that would be an interesting recycling project. Also, there is a free modular enclosure on printables now.
I don't know if it has been said yet (I'm not going to read through all of the comments), but when cutting acrylic, or anything that can splinter, for that matter, just put some painters tape over top of it and it will stop it from fraying or breaking free and shooting off at you. Even if you are drilling a hole in metal, such as a car, using painters tape will give you a nice clean hole/cut.
nice video! small tip. when cutting acrylic. try to use a blade with a higher tooth count and thinner kerf, as well make it so the blade BARELY goes above the top surface. it will make the plastic shrapnel to almost nothing to worry about :)
@@BrianMeeks np. also if the protective plastic is removed on it. just put some tape on both sides where you plan to cut, this will also help with chipping/tear out etc.
I haven’t cut acrylic on my table saw before. But I was going to suggest a very similar method with high tooth count, thin kerf blade. Also, what worked very well for me while cutting vinyl soffit material was to use an old worn blade of that type, but install it in reverse to avoid the shrapnel affect. Again, I haven’t tried this with acrylic, but it was beautiful with the vinyl soffit sheeting.
I definitely can see myself building this. Especially if the walls can double with a silencing inner pattern, and the hex system exterior. It becomes a cube of usefulness.
buy extrusions, buy acrylic panels, pay to drill them, you get a 10 times better enclosure at a cheaper price than a PLA enclosure that will start melting on the 3nd print
I just don't get products like this. It requires a printer, preferably one that already has an enclosure and can print the more difficult materials anyway for longevity and even at that, it takes five freaking kilos of filament to print the entire thing. I can buy three Lack tables for the price of ONE roll of PLA filament and those things come in different sizes now. And that's not even taking the price of puchasing the STL's into account. I think it's just way, WAY more convenient and economic to just buy a Lack (or multiple even), some basic hardware and a handful of printed parts than spend a hundred bucks and literally three months of non-stop printing to come up with something like this. I guess I'm not their target audience.
Yeah, different strokes for different folks, some folks really like to print it and make it super customized, others want to do it cheaply and easily with available stuff!
This video comes at the best possible time. I'm absolutely going to try this out, and the flexibility in the system is, as you say, so great that a bucket full if the different parts is going to be great. It's going to be a big and loud "GO" from my side.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I was thinking of getting one of the enclosure tents but this will be perfect for my SV06+. With the modular nature I can store the tools on a side panel. Please keep us up to date on how the PLA holds up.
Dude EVERYONE has an SV06 lol including me. Pretty cool! I'm happy about it. Requires alot of tinkering in the beginning, but I have it printing real well now!
The kickback on the table saw is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. A piece of acrylic shot back at you at 10:40. RUclips has some great table-saw safety videos. We appreciate the content. Stay safe!
5kg filament + printing time + acrylic + hardware ? No way ! This comes to be an enclosure which costs more than half the price of the A1. This makes no sense. Who wants to do it for an Ender3 or so and spend more for the enclosure than for the printer itself ? Come on...
A neat idea, but not something I can imagine paying for. My enclosure used only 1kg of filament to hold together the corners of wood that I got for free from a big box hardware store (used to tie down their shipments of bulk lumber); I could have gotten away with far less engineering if I didn't want it to look as neat as it does. Using plastic only on the outside of the corners also means heat is no concern.
Great video, but I can't back a KS for functional 3d models that do not include step files, it's one thing to only have stls for decorative stuff, but for it to be a customizable system, there needs to be a backer level that includes cad you can do stuff with, otherwise it's a lot of printing for limited use case -- for the price I can buy some inexpensive 2020, some acrylic, spend 20 minutes in cad and have an enclosure, or go the ikea route, they do realize the time investment to print all the parts is significant, this feels like when you only have a hammer, everything is a nail...to shocking dismay to us 3d printing enthusiasts, not everything needs to be 3d printed.
I have been working on my own 3D printable enclosure this past week or so on and off because I couldn't find any that was quite what I was looking for. It's going to be my first model on a actual software like fusion360 and honestly its going a lot smoother than expected, for the walls and such I was going to look around home depot and probably use some type of veneer like wood or something like that.
Whoa. Give this one a consideration. It was pretty fun to build. Not the cheapest option out there compared to lack but it’s super customizable which is a plus
That doesn’t seem logical to print at all. $50-$100 of pls depending how you source it. Then add cost for lights and stuff. My enclosure was less than that and is fireproof and came with a light strip. Cool build but doesn’t make sense unless you get free pla from a sponsor.
Interesting but gimmicky, esp for the price point involved. For the cost of the files and the materials I can pick up a couple easy to assemble pre-made aluminum tube and ruberrized nylon fabric enclosures like the ones I already use for my printers and laser. One thing I would also add to the final product that I don't see in this preview is the option for leveling legs.
Very nice, great concept - but waaay too expensive: at the end of the day, this is an alternative to a lack enclosure, which is 12 Euro here in Europe. This is ~50 Euros for the files, 100 Euros for the Filament and the work and money to print the stuff - so easily 150 Euros PLUS the acrylic for the walls. This is almost twice the price of the printer I want to enclose and for the combined money I could buy a fully enclosed K1. So please lower the price for the files to Lack-levels and I would be in just for the fun of it...
so, thats really nice and all, but not factoring anything else. with the average 1kg of PLA going for $20, thats already $100 in filament alone.... the flexibility in the system was nice but this isent really an inexpensive way of making an enclosure.. the re-usability point is a great one, and in the long run may offset the initial capital cost.. but i dont see the average laymen hobbyist doing setup changes that frequently that this system would be worth it. non the less, GREAT video as always!!! thank you for sharing and providing a constant stream of creative content!
Thanks for the kind words!!! Yeah these types projects usually are not about saving money so much as infinite customizability. Same with the briefcase one I did.
What can’t you just enjoy the high quality videos he makes without searching for something to criticize? He disclosed his sponsors, and the was thorough in his review of the product.
Really interested in getting this, but I have a question. I understand the enclosure's overall size can be customized, but what's the length/size of the smallest extension ? By the looks of it, one piece looks like it's about 5" in length, so the case's length in any axis can be increased/decreased in 5" intervals ?
I would hope there would be more to this, I just backed the Phrozen Arco on kickstarter and would like to make a custom Borg cube one of there design but having trouble with the excel file and do not know what a "Enter Number of Elements in Below Fields" so question is how to you figure out the encloser? the video was look at this product is there any suggestions as to where I can get step by step this is how you make an encloser
This was awesome and thank you for sharing. I will definitely be printing this out and giving a like to the developer. Problem is, I have too many projects already lol The struggle is real.
This looks so good to build I will soon have my first 3D printer and I have been watching a lot of videos to learn before I get my printer, I sure need one of this in my life lol, I seen a bunch of enclosure models but this is definitely the best one I seen good job.
cool project, but i can't see any form of ventilation for the printer's maiboard and electronics. I would be worried that the electronics goes over temperature after a while.
Well nice video with very good explanations. Buying the complete stl-files for the enclosure and the price for 5 kilogramms filament - we are speaking about more then 320 dollars!!!! Really? YES more then 300 dollars. Not include the time and the energy costs and (if u wnat) acrylic walls/doors (again near 100 Dollars more.....). So i am out - this system is near 95% worthless when i have to spend so much money for an enclosure. For those who are rich enough - ok super. But much too much money for an enclosure for one printer 😞 For my p1p enclosure i payed about 70 dollars for the acrylic parts and print the rest with 1 role of pla filament... but more then 400 dolalrs (with acrylic doors/walls)... NO!
I made one kind of out of scraps. I had some spare extrusion beams and my neighbor's small cheap greenhouse collapsed from a lot of wind, so he gave me the panals which are great in keeping heat in. I font have a bottom but for the top I cut out a piece of wood with a filament hole and 3d printed a spool holder
Just pledged $48 to this, been looking for a modular enclosure for my ender 3 pro to print my ABS on my current table, so I don’t have to buy another larger table and separate enclosure from Amazon
i mean yeah it's good but i feel like the 90€ is too much if you only want to use it for 1 printer the 50€ old price tag was much more comfortable but this way i would have to find more people who would want to buy it with me
I really like this This is really cool Thank you for the video. I think I'm just going to stick with making it enclosure out of PVC pipe and drape some thick plastic sheets over it. Think it's a lot easier and probably way cheaper
This was really timely for me. Thanks for the "heads-up" on the Kickstarter. I hope you get something out of it. I decided that for $48 today it was worth saving the time of designing my own! Keep up the great work on the channel.
Interesting video, but way overkill on the technology. More "Rube Goldberg" than simple DIY. Instead of over $100 on filament, and days on a printer, I would simply use 12 pieces of 1 X 1 quality wood cut to length and joined with about 24 "ELL" brackets in the corners. 3D print the door brackets or just buy 4 or 6 cabinet hinges. Make it in a day, or 2 if you include lunch breaks. But for the sides, if there will be a laser involved, you need laser blocking acrylic panels, not clear acrylic. And I would put doors in front and on one (or both) sides for easy access, and cleaning after using a CNC mill. The idea that you can take it apart and make something a different size ignores the acrylic sides that won't fit and the good chance to break a piece on disassembly. Cheaper, faster, easier to just make a new one with a wood frame.
Why is this a kickstarter project? Why make someone pledge about $50 for a print file and call it a product launch that needs funding. Where is the money going?
I was really hoping to see you do one of the fancy designs. Uncle Jessy did the dwarf one and it looked baller. If you, or when you, reconfigure I'd love to see how those looked. Great job as always!
Speaking of enclosing the A1 mini, have you tested how it performs inside an enclosure printing something like ABS? Apparently even though the ABS is not recommended it is technically possible, but i haven't seen anyone test it yet.
It’s evening sold for $128 on their site, with material cost, this could easily be $200 enclosure. I’d rather build it with plywood or extrusions at this price.
Charger adapters for two different kinds of military vehicles. The soldiers don’t have a way to charge their phones, which may sound silly, but it’s really important for them to be able to keep in touch with family!!
@@thenextlayer Thanks. I wouldn't mind seeing a video (or short) about how you realized that this is a problem that needs solving, and how you solved it.
Cool idea but $90 for a digital file and still needing to buy all the filament to make it? Yikes. I’ll just do the Lack hack lol. If they made the price reasonable I would totally go for it. That’s just way too high for a digital file.
Are there any printable enclosures out now? I have an Ender Extender 400XL that could use a better enclosure than the grow tent I’ve been using, that thing is not exactly fun to setup
$90 for a 3d file for a box? And 5kg of filament? Passsssssssss. Would cost 10x less, be 10x faster to make and be more ridged to make it out of a few 2x4s, or extrusion, with some readily available acrylic panel mounts.
Personally I'd rather see something that uses 3d printed joints or something and cheap lumber. Wood is actually fairly cheap compared to filament for these kinds of large projects.
It is as if Google is reading my mind not just my data. I could provide a good home for the BL A1 AMS. The only problem is that it would have to sit in a damp environment and as such, filament being hygroscopic it would not be very productive. It needs an enclosure. This is where Google comes in. I mentioned this problem on another channel. And today I got this promoted video. I think I can use this construction design to incorporate the printer and AMS. So, the dried filament would stay dry longer while inside. Hey, WHAT THE HECK!!!! Build one that will surround the whole house!
The project overall is too expensive to be feasible for most people(myself included). Once you buy the file set you are 90 bucks in and if we assume we need 5 kilos of pla 25 to 30 per kilo 125 and the needed acrylic panels will take it well over 250 which is too much for me personally. If the models were cheaper that would be acceptable. I get that a lot of work went into the design but the price kills the idea. If anything i woud try the free version on printables
@@thenextlayerand in your opinion after printing lots of things, are all this parts necessary? Could they have some parts designed differently to save material? Is it a project worth backing or wait a bit longer? I understand its different industries but I watch SplatterCat gaming, he reviews up and coming indie games and he gives the positive, the negatives and he says when a project is early access, green, fully fledge, the goods, the bads and if its a bargain to grab now or rather wait to a new iteration.
This “jaw-dropping shocked” expression in the thumbnail image hurts credibility to convey your message. If you are “shocked” by your own content, why watch your video? I don’t want to be “amazed” by watching your video, I want to believe you actually know what you are talking about in the video…drop this expression. If you saw this on the street in public, you would walk right past that guy to the person behind him that doesn’t look like he is “amazed by the world”.
Yeah unfortunately you’re mistaken, I A/B test these types thumbnails extensively and these expressions often result in much better click through rates. Which is why so many RUclipsrs do them. But I’ll consider finding some new ones.
Note when cutting Acrylic/Plexiglass with a saw, place Tape (painters tape works well) over where your going to cut, solves the particle issue. Also, cut SLOW, as in just push it through slowly. Another note: Why pay for Files? That is kind of the stupidest thing I have seen from the 3d printing world is selling a STL file. Reason to balk at this is because your still not done spending money after getting the files. There is still the material cost of said thing, also its impossible to stop files from being uploaded to free sites or shared. Ya the "cost" of designing the thing, but also the designer shouldn't be trying to make money off of that design if he isn't going to sell the product himself. I design lots of stuff myself too, but I do not upload or share these files as I actually make the thing and then sell the actual object. If I do ever upload a design, it will be free, because again, its impossible to stop it from getting re-uploaded to other sites.
Good! That's what it's for. If you support Hamas and hate Israel, I don't want you benefitting from my content. I'm based in Israel, and I won't apologize for it.

Volunteer printing for the Israeli army? How can you support War in any way? I thaught it is bad enough that the people of Isreal don't condemn their goverments actions.

Can you somehow show your enclosure?
Why would you print an enclosure out of PLA? You're just asking for it to warp
I won’t be exposing it to heat I want to use it for a laser cutter. Also didn’t have enough PETG and shipments are delayed due to the war. So yeah.

Seems that coroplast would pair exceptionally well with this setup. Easy to cut panels with a pair of scissors or a utility knife.
$90 is ridiculous for just files

I really like this This is really cool Thank you for the video. I think I'm just going to stick with making it enclosure out of PVC pipe and drape some thick plastic sheets over it. Think it's a lot easier and probably way cheaper
the big question is why hasnt anyone released stls for something like this open source style
If I factor in what it costs me printing this enclosure I am better off buying 2020 extrusions and mounting acrylic panels on them.
From where do you buy 2020 extrusions so cheaply?
U struggle to find for $100-150?
Yes. I ended up paying €248 back in March to a company in the Netherlands. So $100-150 would be a real improvement
This was really timely for me. Thanks for the "heads-up" on the Kickstarter. I hope you get something out of it. I decided that for $48 today it was worth saving the time of designing my own! Keep up the great work on the channel.
Nice enjoy! Would love to hear what you think of it
Interesting video, but way overkill on the technology. More "Rube Goldberg" than simple DIY.
Instead of over $100 on filament, and days on a printer, I would simply use 12 pieces of 1 X 1 quality wood cut to length and joined with about 24 "ELL" brackets in the corners. 3D print the door brackets or just buy 4 or 6 cabinet hinges. Make it in a day, or 2 if you include lunch breaks.
But for the sides, if there will be a laser involved, you need laser blocking acrylic panels, not clear acrylic.
And I would put doors in front and on one (or both) sides for easy access, and cleaning after using a CNC mill.
The idea that you can take it apart and make something a different size ignores the acrylic sides that won't fit and the good chance to break a piece on disassembly. Cheaper, faster, easier to just make a new one with a wood frame.
I’m looking to build an enclosure for my Bambu A1. Would this cause any harm to the printers electronics?
Should be fine, you won't get temps high enough to cause problems.
Can believe that I ended up on this as it was posted.
same
Why is this a kickstarter project? Why make someone pledge about $50 for a print file and call it a product launch that needs funding. Where is the money going?
Huge thumbs up! A very comprehensive and well delivered content on a specific project. Thank you!
Please do a video on the laser printer and other configurations.
Nice but considering how much filament and time it requires, I´ll do mine with wood and glass, thank you.
I was really hoping to see you do one of the fancy designs. Uncle Jessy did the dwarf one and it looked baller. If you, or when you, reconfigure I'd love to see how those looked. Great job as always!
Speaking of enclosing the A1 mini, have you tested how it performs inside an enclosure printing something like ABS? Apparently even though the ABS is not recommended it is technically possible, but i haven't seen anyone test it yet.
I feel like for things like this, it's just cheaper and easier to buy one vs printing it.
forgetting effort print time and electricity it's 125CAD!
does anyone know where I can order a printed version from somebody with a commercial license for this?
It’s evening sold for $128 on their site, with material cost, this could easily be $200 enclosure. I’d rather build it with plywood or extrusions at this price.
Where is the link to download? This is free right? I’m assuming it is since, well it’s 3d printable and you have to print it yourself.
There's a free modular enclosure on printables
Did you try these with some ABS printing?
Thanks!!
Please tell us more about what you're printing for the soldiers.
Charger adapters for two different kinds of military vehicles. The soldiers don’t have a way to charge their phones, which may sound silly, but it’s really important for them to be able to keep in touch with family!!
@@thenextlayer Thanks. I wouldn't mind seeing a video (or short) about how you realized that this is a problem that needs solving, and how you solved it.
Wouldn't the motherboard fan blow air into the encloser like this?
Can we download the prints im a starter i have a 600x600mm printer
This looks great! Might have to look into it, I really could do with an enclosure
share the file please or link
@@Anonymous-ut9bc it’s a paid file, I’m not sharing it, you’ll have to pay like everyone else. The link is in the video description
Go for it!
@@thenextlayer I’ve backed the kickstarter!
Cool idea but $90 for a digital file and still needing to buy all the filament to make it? Yikes. I’ll just do the Lack hack lol. If they made the price reasonable I would totally go for it. That’s just way too high for a digital file.
Can this be printed with a Prusa mini!!
Would there be version for P1S? I want to reduce the noise.
It's modular, you can make it however big you want :)
Are there any printable enclosures out now? I have an Ender Extender 400XL that could use a better enclosure than the grow tent I’ve been using, that thing is not exactly fun to setup
I know your comment is 4 months old, but nobody replied. Yes, there is a free printable modular enclosure on printables
@@danatopereira I actually sold my 400XL and replaced it with an Ender 3 V3 KE, and bought an enclosure for it
From where do you get the FlexiGlass ?
Looks like it would not be that hard to turn this into a table
$90 for a 3d file for a box? And 5kg of filament? Passsssssssss. Would cost 10x less, be 10x faster to make and be more ridged to make it out of a few 2x4s, or extrusion, with some readily available acrylic panel mounts.
that design looks like made for injection molding, not FDM printing
Actually it was designed for FDm and uses very minimal supports
Nah, i will never back projects like this. A kickstarter campain to sell some STLs....
What was your experience? I already bought two campaigns from these people Even so, I'm afraid that they won't give me the files.
Personally I'd rather see something that uses 3d printed joints or something and cheap lumber. Wood is actually fairly cheap compared to filament for these kinds of large projects.
It is as if Google is reading my mind not just my data. I could provide a good home for the BL A1 AMS. The only problem is that it would have to sit in a damp environment and as such, filament being hygroscopic it would not be very productive. It needs an enclosure. This is where Google comes in. I mentioned this problem on another channel. And today I got this promoted video. I think I can use this construction design to incorporate the printer and AMS. So, the dried filament would stay dry longer while inside. Hey, WHAT THE HECK!!!! Build one that will surround the whole house!
Sorry but $128 for FILES??? I thought it would be $20!!! Should look at other projects to set pricing.
The project overall is too expensive to be feasible for most people(myself included). Once you buy the file set you are 90 bucks in and if we assume we need 5 kilos of pla 25 to 30 per kilo 125 and the needed acrylic panels will take it well over 250 which is too much for me personally. If the models were cheaper that would be acceptable. I get that a lot of work went into the design but the price kills the idea. If anything i woud try the free version on printables
Fuerza Israel!
We need Stl files
Looks so bulky! Feels like they could have saved at least half of the materials.
It’s hollow inside (the parts) but very sturdy!
@@thenextlayerand in your opinion after printing lots of things, are all this parts necessary?
Could they have some parts designed differently to save material?
Is it a project worth backing or wait a bit longer?
I understand its different industries but I watch SplatterCat gaming, he reviews up and coming indie games and he gives the positive, the negatives and he says when a project is early access, green, fully fledge, the goods, the bads and if its a bargain to grab now or rather wait to a new iteration.
סרטון מהמם!
הלוואי והמחיר של הקיקסטארט היה נמוך יותר.
Thank you for this video and all of your videos. Side question, what prints do the soldiers need and where can I mail it to? Stay safe.
This “jaw-dropping shocked” expression in the thumbnail image hurts credibility to convey your message. If you are “shocked” by your own content, why watch your video? I don’t want to be “amazed” by watching your video, I want to believe you actually know what you are talking about in the video…drop this expression. If you saw this on the street in public, you would walk right past that guy to the person behind him that doesn’t look like he is “amazed by the world”.
Yeah unfortunately you’re mistaken, I A/B test these types thumbnails extensively and these expressions often result in much better click through rates. Which is why so many RUclipsrs do them. But I’ll consider finding some new ones.
Do you know where to by pmma sheets in israel?
I don't even know what PMMA sheets are?
@@thenextlayer acrylic/pmma/perspex same things differnt names
why dont they just sell it its printed files?
Note when cutting Acrylic/Plexiglass with a saw, place Tape (painters tape works well) over where your going to cut, solves the particle issue. Also, cut SLOW, as in just push it through slowly.
Another note: Why pay for Files? That is kind of the stupidest thing I have seen from the 3d printing world is selling a STL file. Reason to balk at this is because your still not done spending money after getting the files. There is still the material cost of said thing, also its impossible to stop files from being uploaded to free sites or shared.
Ya the "cost" of designing the thing, but also the designer shouldn't be trying to make money off of that design if he isn't going to sell the product himself. I design lots of stuff myself too, but I do not upload or share these files as I actually make the thing and then sell the actual object. If I do ever upload a design, it will be free, because again, its impossible to stop it from getting re-uploaded to other sites.
Thanks for the tip!
Seen this on another vieo and while it looks good, it is kind of pricey for just some stl files that you have to print yourself.
5:13 earned a like, and loads of respect.
Dude lives on land stolen from Palestinians. He's printing for the Israeli army, not the US army.
two words: material creep. I bet those clips esp. made from PLA will loosen over time.
how can I get the sv06 to israel? can you pls help me?
Filamentech has it :)
@@thenextlayer It's 1390 nis for a 195$ 3d printer, is there a cheaper option?
link for stl file
It’s a Kickstarter lol check out the link in the description
IMO this is a terrible use of 3d printed
ממש אוהב את הסירטונים שלך
מה זה מה שאתה מדפיס לחיילים אם הם צריכים אני ישמח להדפיס להם גם
Stopped watching when I saw that flag in the background
Good! That's what it's for. If you support Hamas and hate Israel, I don't want you benefitting from my content. I'm based in Israel, and I won't apologize for it.
@@thenextlayer you are brainwashed sir.
Can you please tell us more about what you are printing for the soldiers? I also printed some things for them and want to print more
Its unfortunate that i have to tell youtube due to ethics that are likely out of both of our hands at this point in our lives but keep up the amazing work bud :)
I hope you're doing good buddy and I hope Israel is continuing to be as resilient as they've always been. Sending love from north west Arkansas.
Volunteer printing for the Israeli army? How can you support War in any way? I thaught it is bad enough that the people of Isreal don't condemn their goverments actions.
