Super cool idea, but YIKES at the cost. After materials and STL costs, my rough math is about $400USD, 7-14 spools a filament! 12 Days of solid printing time, the power costs, hardware. Holy cow this is an investment. You could buy readymade enclosures cheaper.
I did the same, but no tinfoil :D I used it to print the parts for my Voron v0 on a printer that had an all-metal hotend (thanks to an upgrade) but otherwise wasn't really meant to print ASA. It worked surprisingly well. I just cut 2 sides off a box (back and bottom) and then cut a hole in the front and then attached one of the cut-off sides to the front as a flap for access. Worked really well since I could take the whole thing off easily if needed, or just lift the flap for quick access.
I always save the tinfoil (Have alot of Hats, Really..It helps nowadays and especially for what’s to come).. Better than Spending 300-500$ on Filament to build a 10$ box..🤙🏻
I literally just coated a large cardboard box with resin, coated the inside with some cheap insulation and I've been using that for 4 months just fine now and it only took one bottle of resin. But this is an interesting idea, just seems like a lot.
I love this! I know that it is a ton of filament and you can buy premade enclosures, but the versatility is what makes it amazing. It can adjust to whatever printer you want and even if you end up using a different enclosure down the road, it has the potential to be configured for a lot more than 3d printing. Thanks Jessy, best video I’ve seen on this so far!
Printing mine right now. Holy crap it takes a while! Got the game done, it was a little confusing but only printed 4 extra parts. The walls look like they'll be easier, I put them on their face and layed them out in the slicer to make sure I'm getting the correct ones with the right amount. I'm printing the door right now. Instead of a pegboard I think I'm going to go with a honeycomb wall, or another that is a octagon, and epoxy the spacers to it and then attach the frame. I like those options better than the pegboard. I have over a day of printing to finish just the door though! This is by far the biggest project I have ever done!
This is a crazy army of printers. I am so jealous. Mostly because I can't get a completed print out of my Neptune 4 pro in over a month now. Those connection parts sexy!
If it's just the ambient heat generated by the printer it SHOULD stay well below the point that PLA softens. If you are using an external heater, you would need to monitor it, and probably use a different material.
i was just pricing out what it would cost for 2020 aluminum to make my enclosure and i fear he may have used more $ in filament than the aluminum would cost lol
Hard to say as I was using a bunch of left over spools, which is why some of the black panel parts colors dont match. I would say around 4 rolls of black pla. Maybe 3 or 4 of the Marble PLA for the door/side (I also printed a ton of the trim pieces but was pressed for time). Maybe 1 roll of orange for the pegboard. Around 8 rolls for everything i was showing in the video is my best guess.
Really interested in getting this, but I have a question. I understand the enclosure's overall size can be customized, but what's the length/size of the smallest extension ? By the looks of it, one piece looks like it's about 5" in length, so the case's length in any axis can be increased/decreased in 5" intervals ?
Jessy, hope you’ll spare me a moment of your time to answer a question regarding the 3D enclosure. I have bought the files and have printed the Standard size enclosure. Also printed the peg board back and the front doors. Before I choose a theme, I want to make sure to make the right painting choices. Structure was printed in PETG (to future proof for potential high-temp projects). For the doors, I assume I can layer the theme on the front doors with PLA. But for the mural, there is no underlayment. Still use PETG? Also, for the doors and mural, what amount of detail can I expect to lose if I decide to spray paint rather than say choose a filament in the color and texture I want and simply add painterly highlights? FYI considering the Egypt theme, and was thinking Rustoleum Desert Bisque or maybe some brand of Sandstone filament. Thanks again.
i would love to see how this works for a resin printer since the lids need to lift up off the printer. @unclejessy could you do a small enclosure vid for like a mars 3 or something???
Great video as always Uncle Jessy. I have a question. What about warping? You answered another person that you did everything in pla. But wouldn't pla warp due to heat? What would be the most recommended material for this, petg, abs? Thank you very much and I always watch your videos.
Enclosure of this size only goes up to about 45 degrees C (ish). Pla only starts to goopify around 55-60C. It should be fine. Probably. If you're actively heating, that's a different story Edit: spelling
It may be impracticle but it demonstrates what you can do with imagination being the main limitation. Its really cool and would make for a great showroom peice!
No Elegoo printers involved in this build? Wonder why? 🤣 Man, I'm seeing so many compaints about the Elegoo 4 models online. So happy I went with the Bamboo Labs P1S. Just take it out of the box and print. No manual leveling knobs. Core XY is the way to go.
Yea I can't go back to bed slingers after my P1P. It's just so much nicer to not have to constantly tweak and tinker with your printer every couple of prints.
Hahaha I cant win. Complain if I use elegoo printers, complain if I dont use elegoo printers. Figured I'd hold off on using them for this project. I do have 2 Neptune 4 / 4 Plus videos coming up very soon ;)
@UncleJessy No, definitely not complaining. Just speaks volumes when you don't use them for a large project. In other words, they're not your go-to printer. You go with the printers that are more likely to give you good prints without messing around with them. An observation is not complaining
Cool idea but it seems elaborate and quite expensive (filament and time wise) to print this off. What would be the filament costs and the print time expense?
woow great enclosure but deff exp. when you use so much filement. but if i can i'll deff try. ps Uncle how do you get so smooth prints love it! keep up the videos youre the one who got me in too 3d printing. got my first printer ever and can't wait to start printing
this is cool and i love it, but why are we kickstarting stls? i dont see why they cant just release them for a price? its not like theyre manufacturing a project, and it seems functional enough that they dont really need to do too much more editing to the files
This is quite brilliant! I was thinking of finding an enclosure solution for my Kobra max, Kobra neo and Photon 4k and being that they're all different sizes, I'd need a scalable solution so this comes at a great time! Thanks for this!
Damn, I don't know how I am going to afford it, but I am going to have to figure out a way. I want this for my office, especially with the different stretch goals
Alright if like Uncle Jessy here you have a load of big fast pricey core xy klipper printers to do the mad amount of parts. And I see a problem with the idea.? Any 3D printer inside this encloser will soon over heat due to the base electronics being in there with the printer! You would need to raise the encloser up to a level on feet that let's you fit a floor section load of panels to just below the level of the bed supporting frame so the bed moves and the floor sits around there sealing the base with those picky heat disliking electronics away from all the heat in the encloser it's self.
I think it is a lot of printing and a lot of work. If you want it to look special it will cost you even more printing and work. Printing in PETG or even ASA will make it quite expensive too. There are a lot of easier and cheaper options available.
Uncle I would love a enclosure for my Flashforage adventure 5m to be like a Borg Ship from star trek or Like yours except with nfsw medusa on all three sides Lol!!
Shoot... I knew I forgot something. I believe I went through 4 rolls of Black PLA, 3 Rolls of Marble PLA, maybe 1 roll of orange PLA. I'd say $80-$120 in materials. Just a rough ballpark Was hard to keep track of since i was using a bunch of partial rolls I had left over, which is why some of the black panel colors dont match up.
@@UncleJessy PLA for a printer enclosure what were you thinking? The only reason to have an enclosure is to be able to print high temp filaments that need a 60+ degree chamber which will soften PLA :( This has to be printed with higher temp filamant to be useful IMO! So $120 guess in mat costs ( if all print perfect in 1st run) + $58 to back and for $199 I can buy a nicer enclosure that can withstand high temps!
I was thinking the same thing, even just printing more PLA, heat will build up in the enclosure and I feel that it would just be a matter of time till things started sagging and warping.
It would have to be printed in Petg or ASA plus the side panels it's going to end up costing well over $300Aud in Filament and weeks or printing if you want to make enclosures for at least 2 printers. Plus add-ons. Acrylic Panels are not cheap either. That's a Very expensive enclosure in the end
Not sure I could afford enough filament to print one for my Neptune 4 Max.. lol Some Star Wars theme panels, or HR Giger, or Temple of Gozer from Ghostbusters.. or Indiana Jones.. I'm sure some fans will come up with panels after it's released.
While this is all cool and whatnot, what is the actual purpose? I mean it costs a lot of material and time, plus takes space. I do not see the need to "hide" the printer like that. Does it provide any other benefit, like sound dampening, heat insulation, VOC containment?
For as much as you push Elegoo products, it was very interesting to hear that for your own side projects you use every other printer you own except for Elegoo printers.
My gripe with this is that it seems so flimsy on all vids i've seen it on. The frame parts look more like designed for injection molding than 3d printing. FDM can do chunky parts, but they opted for thin wall like injection molded.
Hi Uncle Jesse what computer do you use to slice your 3d models. I want to get into 3d printing and wanted to know what computer you use and what filament you would recommend. Thank you and have a great day!
Great news, you dont need any sort of fancy machine for slicing 3D files. I run on a macbook but just about any PC will work as well. Right now I'm loving Elegoo basic PLA on amazon. Pretty affordable and prints great on most printers
TMC 'extruder' reports error: DRV_STATUS: 401c0090 s2vsa=1(LowSideShort_A!) olb=1(OpenLoad_B!) cs_actual=28 stealth=1 Once the underlying issue is corrected, use the "FIRMWARE_RESTART" command to reset the firmware, reload the config, and restart the host software.

I bought a grow tent on Amazon to house my printers. It costs less than the large number of kilos of filament needed for this and holds multiple printers and most of my filament. I appreciate the modularity of this design but it's a bit of a waste of plastic
Yup that is a totally doable option. Or there are enclosure kits on sites like matterhackers. What I think some people will like about this is that that can make it how they want or have it look a certain way depending on what they like. All about what options are best for you and your needs/budget/time etc 🤘
To be Temp resistant which is the whole reason for an enclosure to print high temp material filaments at controlled temperatures. You would have to use Petg or ASA would be Crazy expensive especially with side panels or acrylic panels. PLA is useless to hsve a temp controlled enclosure as it will deform over time and not handle heat at all. What a Waste. It looks Great but does not serve the Purpose by using PLA.

Yes, just waiting for the remainder of the files to drop. I like to get my resin printer switched out into a much smaller enclosure.
Super cool idea, but YIKES at the cost. After materials and STL costs, my rough math is about $400USD, 7-14 spools a filament! 12 Days of solid printing time, the power costs, hardware. Holy cow this is an investment. You could buy readymade enclosures cheaper.
I just ordered one of those cloth 3d enclosures off Amazon for $38. I was thinking of just using a box but I wanted something that looked spiffy! ;)
i did something very similar, except i used a recycled box and some tin foil. worked awesome.
Nice!
Ingenious. Start a go fund me. 😂
I did the same, but no tinfoil :D I used it to print the parts for my Voron v0 on a printer that had an all-metal hotend (thanks to an upgrade) but otherwise wasn't really meant to print ASA.

I used a Rice Krispies box and tape on mine lol
I always save the tinfoil (Have alot of Hats, Really..It helps nowadays and especially for what’s to come)..
Better than Spending 300-500$ on Filament to build a 10$ box..🤙🏻
Man I'm glad you did this video. I've been a backer since the beginning, but this makes me so happy I am.
This really was a fun project to print and get assembled!
I backed this yesterday after watching the video from The Next Layer. I am so excited to be able to get these files and print it out.
Whoa, I'm flattered you discovered it through me :)
How much filament is it roughly going to use?
@@itsmemato6088 rough estimate from what I can see for my needs is ~12 spools
I literally just coated a large cardboard box with resin, coated the inside with some cheap insulation and I've been using that for 4 months just fine now and it only took one bottle of resin. But this is an interesting idea, just seems like a lot.

What is the estimated cost of the plastic?
Wow, that was a huge build. If I tried it would take months to just print. I Love the Dwarven enclosure, kinda want some gold filament for that.
Great video and even a bigger enclosure... This thing is massive
Just ordered my first 3d printer so will keep an eye on this.
I backed this as of Monday watching the next layer, glad to see this has gotten some traction though
It is some work but it so well designed. Really impressive engineering.
This is a crazy army of printers. I am so jealous. Mostly because I can't get a completed print out of my Neptune 4 pro in over a month now. Those connection parts sexy!
can't wait for you to do one for the elegee orange storm, i want to know how much filament was used for the one in this video
GIGA GIGA GIGA!
This would be perfect for a custom paint booth
Wondering if you could use this for when the Orange Storm Giga shows up.
Would have to print out more pieces, will need to be MUCH bigger!
3D printing parts for a 3D printer? You love to see it!
Next thing you know, you can 3D Print a 3D Printer...oh wait 🤣
Wow that’s pretty cool
So how much filament did you go through? I personally think that is a better metric than number of parts printed.
Sickkk!!! Thank you UJ !! 🤙🤙
Thank you sir for the hard work on these awesome files
Any idea of how much filament you used for all of those parts? This looks like a fun future project.
Someone else printed one, and it was about 5kg. So quite a bit, lol 😂
Less than I thought it would be honestly.@@TheDevile1
What ever happened with the life-sized Magneto? Been dying to see that finished.
He replied to an earlier comment down the line a bit, magneto will be here very very soon, he says
How is a PLA enclosure going to hold up over time when maintaining ABS temperatures inside of it? I’m worried about warping this if I make one.
Print in PETG instead of PLA
If it's just the ambient heat generated by the printer it SHOULD stay well below the point that PLA softens. If you are using an external heater, you would need to monitor it, and probably use a different material.
@@krahnjp Thanks! PETG should be heartier, right? I’m still new to all this.
@@Shakes_The_Clone yup, PETG will give you more peace of mind, and 30-40 degrees more wiggle room.
@@krahnjp Super! Thanks again!
Wow pretty cool! Could have led with this being a sponsored video though
Edit: it's there in the beginning of the video but I missed it
It appears at the very beginning of the video. Did you not see it?
Yeah youtube should have a little popup that displays that
Ahh I must have missed it!
@Unclejessy How much kg Black filament did you burn for all the parts? 😁
i was just pricing out what it would cost for 2020 aluminum to make my enclosure and i fear he may have used more $ in filament than the aluminum would cost lol
$50 for 10pcs 48" 2020 aluminum on amazon btw

Around 8 rolls for everything i was showing in the video is my best guess.
I was wondering the same thing, If I had to guess maybe 6 to 7K grams of filament total...I might be over guessing but that was a lot of parts
Looks amazing, could you say how much filament you used for your project?
It looks like many spools 😅
Wow this looks great! Thanx Uncle Jessy! I've got a Neptune 3 MAX that this would be perfect for!! I signed up, can't wait to see how it evolves.
Does this system include a flat T junction to allow long, high enclosures? To support the middle of a long horizontal.
This is one it took zero thought to back. Plus, finally, a solution for me having a new workshop! I'll just print one!
Really interested in getting this, but I have a question. I understand the enclosure's overall size can be customized, but what's the length/size of the smallest extension ?

Add a door to the front AND top. Problem solved.
Wow I don't even want to know how many spools of filament you used for this! Sheesh!
Its very cool for sure.
The thing I want to see unless I missed it is the life-size magneto, I got enclosure stuff early bird which I usually miss.
Magneto is making his return very very soon :)
Really cool 👍
Looks intresting, does it have to be a certain material or PLA is good enough?
Petg or abs would prolly be the best two to choose from. I’m using petg once I get the files.
Great video as always Uncle Jessy. I have a question. What about warping? You answered another person that you did everything in pla. But wouldn't pla warp due to heat? What would be the most recommended material for this, petg, abs?

Edit: spelling
I welded together a frame from steel angle, and attached acrylic panels with magnets. Works great but weighs alot 😅
How big must the enclosure be to allow a resin printer hood off? I want a compact enclosure for limited space. Thank you for all you do.
Most resin printers you can cut the front of the cover and make "doors"
I want to buy stock in the company you get your electricity from. GREAT VIDEO!!!!! I just backed this kickstarter.
Does printer noise get reduced using this enclosure?
I don’t know how to feel about this while cool, it’s such a waste of filament aluminum extrusion would be much more practical
Filament is waaaay cheaper than aluminum extrusions
How many kgs of filament do you think he used?
If only he had consulted you first before making it. I hope before he does anything else that he emails you first for your blessing.
This is a look what you can do… this is way more expensive then aluminum extrusion and acrylic but that’s not why. So enjoy the entertainment
It may be impracticle but it demonstrates what you can do with imagination being the main limitation. Its really cool and would make for a great showroom peice!
Sides with exhaust ports should have a Death Star theme.
Did you say how much filament you used?
No Elegoo printers involved in this build? Wonder why? 🤣 Man, I'm seeing so many compaints about the Elegoo 4 models online. So happy I went with the Bamboo Labs P1S. Just take it out of the box and print. No manual leveling knobs. Core XY is the way to go.

I do like the idea of making 1 enclosure that is Narrow and wide for a few of my resin printers inside 1 case.
@@UncleJessy so in more of a custom situation, will you have to get an acrylic sheet laser cut to fit?
160 euros in PLA that will melt on the 3rd enclosed print you do and 50 euros for STLs then god knows how much on eletricity
Did you use pla? Does the enclosure melt if you print stuff at higher temperatures, or if the room gets too hot?
You should make an encloser for the orange storm giga
Damn, I don't know how I am going to afford it, but I am going to have to figure out a way. I want this for my office, especially with the different stretch goals
Jessy: *has dozens upon dozens of files to print* All the printers in the room from different manufacturers: "AVENGERS ASSEMBLE"
That's pretty epic
How much filament did you use for this project? Ultimately it would help some people to decide it is it worth it. Thanks.
"4 rolls of Black PLA, 3 Rolls of Marble PLA, maybe 1 roll of orange PLA. I'd say $80-$120 in materials."
Alright if like Uncle Jessy here you have a load of big fast pricey core xy klipper printers to do the mad amount of parts.

the larger issue is he used PLA which softens at 60 degrees so the enclosure itself is pointless!
If you only have one printer this would take a month of just printing. That’s insane.
I think it is a lot of printing and a lot of work. If you want it to look special it will cost you even more printing and work. Printing in PETG or even ASA will make it quite expensive too. There are a lot of easier and cheaper options available.
What was the total print time for all of the parts?
@unclejessy any chance you are going to offer this as a service?
It crossed my mind!
Uncle I would love a enclosure for my Flashforage adventure 5m to be like a Borg Ship from star trek or Like yours except with nfsw medusa on all three sides Lol!!
What material is this printed in?
I dare you to print one of these big enough to fit the Giga when you get one!
This is epic!
where does one buy 3d gloop?
300$ worth if filament for a 100$ enclosure?
The real question is:
How much did this cost.
Shoot... I knew I forgot something. I believe I went through 4 rolls of Black PLA, 3 Rolls of Marble PLA, maybe 1 roll of orange PLA. I'd say $80-$120 in materials. Just a rough ballpark

wonder what it be like have a giga printer, the frame as 2 pieces, sides as one piece...

To be Temp resistant which is the whole reason for an enclosure to print high temp material filaments at controlled temperatures. You would have to use Petg or ASA would be Crazy expensive especially with side panels or acrylic panels.
