Clack, I wanted to say thank you! I picked up a xtool D1 to learn something new and make some Christmas gifts. Your videos are awesome and have be a huge help inspiring me building my gifts. I'll send you a video after Christmas what I made, don't want to spoil anyones surprise.
Got basically the same enclosure from sculpfun no light or fan, hooked it up to a 72 cfm inline fan and that wasn't enough to keep all the smoke from coming out. It would be helpful to use a vane anemometer ($30) to evaluate fan flow
If you are having an issue with the smoke coming out, try some blue tape or something round the bottom edge to restrict air intake and create negative pressure inside. That is the only issue with the open bottom enclosures, they sometimes let too much air exchange through the bottom. This one actually did a decent job of sealing itself against the table.
For a extended laser I found a VIVOSUN grow room plenty of room for lighting over head and a camera. Or I found a sauna room. All of them look like the same materials. Even the 1 in the video looks similar. Except the grow rooms and sauna have a reflective inner wall
@@TheClackShack unless I missed it. I didn't see the same size. The room that I ended up with for my xtool with extension kit was 24x48x60. Amazon for $105
@@anthonysanders3960 , I can’t remember the dimensions but it was close. I don’t have a long body to try it with. I am sure someone will release one specific for them soon
Interesting looking enclosure. Only issue I see with that filter is it getting clogged with dust from material like luan plywood or other materials that generate both smoke and dust. It would be nice to find an enclosure that accommodates the Xtool extension size.
There are many different designs and models out there. Each has its own set of advantages based on intended use. The frame isn’t bad and does allow mounting of custom additions if needed. It also is easy to store if needed. In my situation, I use fixed enclosures but keep the portables around for those large object jobs. Personally, I would like to see a kit made from hard panels that can be fitted together with metal brackets to create an enclosure. It could be expanded to fit long machines also.
I have the xtool enclosure and find it doesn’t do the job. My whole house is smoky when I use it, so I had to sideline it until I find a better solution.
Not very happy with comgrow they screwed me over as a customer sorry just my opinion towards them as know I'm not the first to think negative reviews about them
