After running around and could not find any design to enclose 3D Kossel / Delta printer,
I decided to enclose my Kossel 3D printer by myself using some acrylic sheets and 3D printed parts.
It is really easy for you to follow my instruction and do it for yourself.
If you want to add light to your Kossel / Delta 3D printer, please refer my design here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2914969
and http://makerholik.com/3d-printing/light-up-your-3d-printer/
Material:
3x Acrylic sheet 2mm x 302mm x 600mm (let's call big acrylic sheet)
6x Acrylic sheet 2mm x 50mm x 600mm (let's call small acrylic sheet)
8x M3x30mm bolts
50x M3x10mm bolts
M3 T-nuts
M3 nuts and washers
Printed parts:
3x Part_1
3x Part_2
5x Part_2_Mirror
2x Part_3
12x Part_4
2x Part_5
All the hinges are used M3x30mm bolts.
Step 1: Assemble 3 back hinges using 3x Part_1, 3x Part_2 and 3x Part_2_Mirror
Step 2: Connect 1 big acrylic sheet with 2 small acrylic sheets using Part_4, M3x10mm bolts, and nuts. We will have 3 doors after this step (1 left, 1 right, 1 front)
Step 3: Attach acrylic sheets to the hinges to create the left and right doors.
Step 4: Attach left and right doors to your Kossel.
Step 5: Left and right doors do not need to open always so directly attach them to the front aluminum extrusion. The hinge at step 1 will help hold the doors in case you want to maintain your 3d printer.
Step 6: Using 2x Part_2_Mirror and 2x Part_3 to create 2 front hinges.
Step 7: Attach the front door along with the front hinges to your 3D printer using M3x10mm bolts, washer, and T-nuts.
Step 8: Put 1 round magnet into Part_5 and attach to the aluminum extrusion. It will help lock the front door.
DONE!!!
By doing this, you will have to change the position of your power supply and also the filament as shown in my pictures above.
