LACKlosure with differing wall thickness (3mm back, 2mm side, 4mm door)

Last crawled date: 4 years, 1 month ago

Remix of the Prusa LACK enclosure with differing wall thicknesses. Reason for that is pretty simple, my local hardware store didn't sell any (affordable) 3mm acrylics, only 2 and 4mm. So I opted for 2mm acrylics for the sides, 4mm for the doors and 3mm MDF for the back (to make it easier to cut holes for a dust filter and 2 fans).
The height of the top parts was extended by 5 cm to get enough room for an Anycubic i3 Mega-S.
I also opted for not using the original bottom piece with a cable hole because it was easier to just cut a small hole into the MDF panel for the power cable.
Additional things you'll need to print:
slotted door handle for 4mm doors
4mm door hinges (by mklauser)
Other materials needed for assembly:
2 Ikea LACK tables
2 pieces of 45 x 50cm 2mm acrylics for the side walls
2 pieces of ~22.5 x 50cm 4mm acrylics for the doors
1 piece of 45 x 50cm 3mm MDF for the back
screws to attach the printed parts. Don't ask me about the needed sizes, I just raided our screw supply for what seemed to fit. The only screws you really have to pay attention to are the ones that attach the extension parts to the upper LACK plate. Ideally, those should have a similar diameter and a bit more length than the double-sided screws that come with the LACK, otherwise they won't have enough grip in the pre-drilled holes.
