Enclosed Ender 3 (build log)

Description

I want to print higher temperature materials, minimise warping, failed prints and contain the gases released by those materials. This is my work-in-progress build log to enclose my modified Creality Ender 3. One motivation for this project is to gain experience modifying my printer, and possibly work up to building a Voron Trident or 2.x in the future. ### 2022 Jan 3rd Replace the [voron 2.4 Raspberry Pi DIN mount](https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-2/blob/Voron2.4/STLs/VORON2.4/Electronics_Compartment/DIN_Brackets/raspberrypi_bracket.stl) (bottom) with my own more centrally positioned version.  **STLs** ------ The skirt uses a modified version of the [voron Trident STLs](https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-Trident/tree/main/STLs/Skirt) customised to fit 550 x 460mm. All electronics compartment mounts designed to fit the Voron 2.4 DIN clip (print in PETG/ABS so the spring can flex). Custom STLs: - [DIN rail extension](/download:11266240) (optional - I ordered 500mm rail, these bridge the remaining 50mm) - Skirt corner pieces (TBC). Stock STLs: - [Voron 2.4 DIN clip](https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-2/blob/Voron2.4/STLs/VORON2.4/Electronics_Compartment/DIN_Brackets/pcb_din_clip_x3.stl) - [Dual side fan support](https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-Trident/blob/main/STLs/Skirt/side_fan_support_x2.stl) - [Rear centre skirt (300mm)](https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-Trident/blob/main/STLs/Skirt/300/rear_center_skirt_300.stl) - Front skirts (300mm) [A](https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-Trident/blob/main/STLs/Skirt/300/front_skirt_a_300.stl), [B](https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-Trident/blob/main/STLs/Skirt/300/front_skirt_b_300.stl) **Bill of materials** -------------------- <table width="100%"> <tr> <td>Item</td><td>Source</td> </tr> <tr> <td>M3 V profile T-nuts</td> <td>Amazon / eBay</td> </tr> <tr> <td>M3 cap screws</td> <td>Amazon / eBay</td> </tr> <tr> <td>4 x 460mm (W), 500mm (H), 550mm (D) 2020 V slot alu extrusion</td> <td><a href="https://ooznest.co.uk/product/v-slot-linear-rail-20x20mm-cut-to-size">ooznest</a></td> </tr> <table>
