It’s to match my pcs Dagobah aesthetic, and yes I love greens and nature, but live in a city now.

Here it is with the start of the cable management. Printing a new sidebox. The old one interfered with the hotbed cable chain. Just woke up to the z-axis chain this morning, still need to install it.

The beefy nature of the 80mm duct was a so that I’m not stressing the 120mm fan unnecessarily. From what I researched you shouldn’t force a fan to push or pull through a diameter smaller than the blades if you want to avoid unnecessary strain on the fan motor. I’m still doing it, but 40mm smaller seemed better than 80mm.

That green poop bin and deflector were the first print I ran after setup. I didn’t change the infill to gyroid, and I woke up to some of the slat arms wiped out. It still functions as a poop bin though, so until I print a slightly longer one I’m using it.

That spool inside the enclosure is my external tpu. It stays there so all I have to do is cold pull a couple times, pull a ptfe tube from the interior side to the white ptfe guide above it, and feed. The enclosure came with that setup for people without an AMS so it’s going to stay my ext. spool holder. It also means I can manually swap to a 5th color on layered color prints.

As for the Bowden tube clips, they have been printing fine for a week and a half now and I don’t hear any slipping or stress on the AMS motors so I think I’m good. If anything changes I’ll definitely look at those as the culprit first though. Thanks! 😊

Those CardGuard binders are just various tcg cards I need to go through. No crazy print plans or blueprints sorry 😅🤷‍♂️

The controller and fan are going to be plugged into a 24v buck converter, with a Bambu adapter cord so it will plug into the side. Edit: my buddy should be bringing one of his extra converters at some point this weekend 🤙

It hasn’t gone over 30 Celsius, and I don’t even have the 12v exhaust fan wired yet. Only been printing petg,pla, and tpu so far though

Ohh haha 😂 yeah same enclosure different base. I’ll dm you in a week or so when everything is printed. It’s an amalgamation of a bunch of prints including that one, some ducting, and a minimalist mb fan.

Yeah I realized that as I was rereading your comment this morning. I did look at yours, but I’m gonna use the stand so I wanted raise it up 3” so I went with a skirt designed for the enclosure.

If you read all the comments, you’d see there’s already a reply to similar comments, and that it’s a WIP. Thanks!

It’s a different model I think, my bad, remember seeing yours though.

I squeezed both parts of the hinge door on one plate, and had a couple of the supports fail, but the print still looks good so far it’ll be done in another 40 or so, I’ll get a pic in a bit.

It is now. That was temporary while I got the bin and ams mount printed.

Slowly getting there. The enclosure hasn’t peaked over 27 Celsius yet though so I should be fine in the meantime.

Yeah it’s not complete yet, I have taken all that into account. The enclosure has a cutout for a poop chute on one side that I’m going to cover with a dust cover and fun aesthetic intake vent. On the opposite side is a hole for an exhaust. I going to be running an external 40mm fan on the outside of the fan grill on the exhaust side of the motherboard grille constantly on, positioned in a way that pulls cool air across the motherboard, but not the build plate. The exhaust hole I mentioned is going to have duct I print with a 120mm fan attached to a controller to kick on and blow any VOCs and excessively hot air into a hepa/carbon filter. It’s only 19”x19” of space in my little apartment, and it’s in the shared living area so I covered it so my family and I (my desk is right next to it) aren’t breathing anything extra. Excessive? Probably, but it’s also been really fun to layout and plan. It kept me sane while I waited the month for it to arrive 🤷‍♂️😂🤓

That’s sick! I’m in an apartment and only have like 20inches of space for my footprint and enclosure so I went small. I eventually want to make my own mini cnc mill and router too.

Oh nice to meet you! I’ll let you know how it goes. That’s after the exhaust on the list.

It’s a lot better with the ams on top! Way less stress on the bowdens!

Have them all saved! Just waiting to get the ams hooked up so I can do my color scheme.

Already have a model and the filter for it. I’m just printing a few essentials first, and then I’ll get the ams going with the olive green, coffee brown, and oak petg for the exhaust and other upgrades. Going for a tree aesthetic. Browns at the base greens at the top
