Ikea Lack Enclosure

Description

I started with the old original lack enclosure 3 years ago, but I never liked the cheap door hinges.

I wanted something with better doors and wanted to be able to put filament spool inside the enclosure to have better humidity control.

The enclosure in the in the pictures use 440x510mm and 220x510 acrylic/plexi 3mm thick panel and give you 605mm of inside height.

A version to reuse your original enclosure panels (220x440mm and 440x440mm) have been made, see bottoms files with 440 in title.

I also reused the original enclosure LCD relocation and PSU relocation.

You can adapt any king of led to it. I adapted my old ikea led bars.

Files list you'll need to print:

Top:

Base:

I printed everything in PLA, using 0.2mm layer height and 10% infill.

Hinges shafts can be made with higher infill of 25-40%. You can make local infill of 25-40% on the top corner hinge shaft too.

Hardware:

#12 flat wood screw to attach the base parts to the table legs (used the same as original Prusa)

#8 round head wood screw to attach base and top parts to table deck (I used black head ones to be more subtle)

Assemble instructions:

Assemble the base_hinges in the base_corners using the shaft_hinge ;

Screw the 4 base_corner to the table legs using #12 wood screw ;

Screw every base parts on the Lack base deck using #8 wood screw ;

Put the lexan/acrylic panel all around. Be gentle with the door pannel to not break the hinge ;

Insert top hinge on top of the doors lexan. Be gentle as the top hinge dont hold anything yet ;

Screw every top_corner in the Lack original big screws ;

Screw all the spacer between the corners using #8 wood screw ;

You can screw the top corners in the leg, but everything hold tight without screw there.
