Ultimate Parametric LACK Enclosure

Description

**Ultimate Parametric LACK Enclosure** ================== This is a complete overhaul of the Original Prusa i3 MK3 ENCLOSURE -Ikea Lack table - Prusa Research project by user cisardom. All parts were designed from the ground up in Fusion 360. **SUPER IMPORTANT PLEASE READ BELOW:** --------------------- The download includes the project file for the enclosure. It is fully functional, feel free to open the door once you open it. ;) The entire project file must be downloaded and imported into Fusion 360 in order to utilize the parameters. This was done to make it easier to get a full set of 'bespoke' parts in one go. With my project, all you need to know is the thickness of your wall panels, and you can have parts that will fit snugly, no glue required. UPDATE 2/18/2019 After multiple user requests, the enclosure has been updated to allow an MMU to fit inside. This will require new plexi dimensions, and slightly longer screws for the top brackets. New plexiglass should be 480mm tall. Please note this has not been tested and should be considered a beta until it has been printed and used by an MMU user. Project Goal: --------------------- Redesign parts to allow users to easily remix all components at once to fit a wide variety of options. With this remix you can expect the following improvements: + Supports wall panels from any thickness up to 48mm! + Increase strength of retaining tabs for wall panels by making them thicker! + Easily removable hinges/front doors post assembly! + Two hinge options - print in place or choose a more durable hinge with a metal pin (5x22mm)! + Redesigned door handles and catch - these parts have a sleeker look, and use 8x3mm magnets in pockets! (think of the square nut catch on some of your Prusa parts) + Increase height of all 'cone pedestals' with one setting if you quickly want to add enclosure height post assembly! + No need to edit all parts one at a time, just measure your wall panel's thickness and input your desired settings into the parameter list! All parts will automatically update at one time! This enclosure is fully compatible with any previously purchased vitamins/hardware used in the original enclosure. The exception to this is the magnets. The new door handles use round magnets (8x3mm) for easier sourcing online and in local hardware stores. You may also notice it is very 'wide'. My personal enclosure uses two LACK tables side by side with the inner legs removed. The parts are still fully compatible with one table, it was just modeled with my enclosure design to illustrate its versatility.
