Description
When trying out my new Elegoo Mars, I instantly noticed a bad resin smell which was coming from the printer while printing. On inspection of the build chamber, I noticed, that there is a huge gap where the endstop is mounted. Here resin contaminated air enters the metal body of the printer and gets exhausted into the room. This seal closes the gap by tightly sealing the sensor against the metal walls. It is printed from SainSmart TPU, but every flexible filament should do the job.
Enjoy and don't give up on installation as ist a really tight fit!
UPDATE!
I printed my first testprint after I installed the seal today and I can barely smell any resin in my room. Looks like the gap around the endstop was the only one between the upper and lower chamber.
