In this video I'm building an enclosure for an 'Anycubic Photon D2' resin 3D printer.
Working in a tight enclosed space like this might not work for everyone, especially if you are used to work in a dedicated 3D printing room with lots of space.
* I recommend to make the enclosure deeper than mine, so the side-door can be wider and the project will be less cramped.
You can integrate some of these techniques into your own project, but bare in mind there's a 1000 different ways to build a project like this (mine might not be the easiest nor best solution) - So try to keep it simple and customize it to your own needs & skills.
I did my best to make this video easy to understand for everyone - but still, having some DIY-experience is highly recommended.
Notes :
* I added English Subtitles (click the 'CC' button).
* This video is not sponsored, everything you see is payed with my own money.
* 3D Printer dimensions : 17.2 x 9.3 x 8.9 inch / 430 x 236 x 226 mm (HWD)
* Fan used : EC (Electronically Commutated), Brushless motor.
* IPA is highly flammable (!) - Don't use a brushed motor for the extraction fan (!)
* Keep a fire-extinguisher nearby.

Really cool project, thanks for sharing!

I swear: The way of explaining what you are doing and why is awesome. I really enjoyed the video. Top notch quality. Also: You are the first, who made a video of an enclosure made really good. The video is awesome and your projects are 100% the same as mine, funny enough in most cases also at the same time. You helped me out a lot in the past and also in the future. Thank you for your service

Thanks for the kind words, it means a lot 🙏 I don't have much time to make videos and sometimes I wonder if it's even worth the effort, but if it's actually helpful to someone then that's great news, thanks for the support & cheers 👍

It is fantastic what you built for your resin printer, I do have to say that it seems a bit overkill for such a small printer. 10 inch printers are almost standard now, like my Creality Halot Mage 8k. But overall fantastic

@stevenshobbychannel 6 месяцев назад

Yes 😅 it looks indeed a bit ridiculous for such a small printer, but it does the job. I wish I could use a bigger printer inside the house but at the moment it's just not possible... Thanks & cheers

Could you talk more about the venting and your comment on creating a vacuum?

@stevenshobbychannel 2 месяца назад

Well basically when you have a sealed box - and you put a fan on it to extract the air, the fan pulls out all the air it can and creates a vacuum. This will put a lot of force on the fan-motor. So to avoid creating a vacuum you need a second opening to pull new air inside the box. In my case it's the grill in the frontdoor. During printing the fan is rotating slow, so the grill opening is enough, but when cleaning I set the fan to a high speed, then more air is sucked out, so I need to let more air in, to do this I open the front doors, both for my arms and to let new air in... hope this makes sence, cheers

If you are going yo screw down the plexiglass you might aswell use some clear caulking/hot glue to make it air tight. Plus not sure how well filters actually work but be a goid idea to properly vent the room/nuclear bunker the printer is located in. Wouldve been more user friendly if you made the enclosure with a front door accessable with some struts. But cool job. Oh wait no filter on the fan? Then whats the point?

@heikootterbach4150 6 месяцев назад

You can see the output of the fan connected to some sort of hose at the end of the video. He is probably blowing the fumes to the outside, so no filter necessary (for work safety at least). Sealing anything is obsolete if you are constantly sucking air out of the case, the lower pressure inside the case will suck air in, not letting the fumes out (thats why he can use it with open doors for cleaning).

@stevenshobbychannel 6 месяцев назад

Hi guys, yes I forgot to mention this in the video, but I have a PVC pipe on the left side which vents outside (it goes up), it would indeed be pointless without that. Sealing is not important when the fan is running, but it helps when your not printing - to keep some odour (from tools, uncured prints or bottles etc) inside. Thanks & cheers 👍

@@stevenshobbychannel are the fumes that bad? I low key enjoy the smell of it😳 always get a great night sleep printing my FGC9mkii's. But her different strokes for different ff322wi32wszfhbns2fn.y4sz,x mm763w2qzzdfgmmy4 Right? Oh just noticed no filter on the fan? Then what's the point?;

@dougeldridge1219 2 месяца назад

Great point on the caulk, I feel the same way. For the filter, I had assumed he was venting outside his bunker.
