Prusa i3 MK2S Enclosure

The Prusa i3 MK2S is a great printer especially for the hobbyist or light industrial desktop user. That having been said it is a raw printer without a lot of accessories that would make it a great printer. The is the second in a series of accessories that I designed for the i3. The others are:

• Print Server

• HEPA Filter

• Spool Holder

Although Prusa i3 MK2S is a great printer, it lacks an enclosure that would isolate the print area from drafts and cold ambient temperatures. Enclosures are also necessary if you wish to filter the air before exhausting it into living spaces common for home 3D printers.

3D Printers produce VOC and Ultra Fine Particles as a unwanted byproducts of melting and extruding plastics. See recent study by Illinois Institute of Technology and The University of Texas at Austin among others: http://pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.1021/acs.est.5b04983
