This is my enclosure I made for my Anet A8 using the £5 Ikea Lack Table.
I Used some Studwork / CLS Timber to make a mitre joint frame that would act as the bottom. Then using a router I took off some off an edge so a piece of wood would fit and act as the base. I then Drilled a hole in each corner and drilled a hole in the bottom of each table leg on the Lack table so I could dowel them to make a dowel joint. This means I can putt the table off in the future if needs be.
I used a laser cutter to make the screw on twisting pieces that will hold the acrylic in place.
The transparent acrylic was also cut using a laser cutter.
The 3D printed corner brackets can be screwed in and stop the side panels from going back too far. The back panel of the enclosure is a piece of MDF that is on two hinges to allow easy access to the PSU and other electronics.
The table feet things are printed to support the table even further or if your don't want to dowel the table, if these are screwed into the inside of each corner, the table can only go up.
I have not explained this very well, so please let me know if you have any questions.
