Frame & Enclosure

Design & Suppliers


For the Structural Frame I'm going to utilize the UConduit design of corner bracket/clamps using O-rings with EMT (Conduit) steel tubing. I intend to print ABS using this printer and to minimize the thermal stress on the part being printed I'm going to have to enclose the printer. Rather than build a separate enclosure I'm going to design the enclosure into the frame. If you don't need the enclosure you can just leave it off.
