Description

Your 3D printer may not have an enclosure, which can be a problem in a dusty classroom. A dusty printer will have issues with bed adhesion.

You can have your students 3D print the corner brackets and pipe clamps to produce this frame. For the sheeting material you can explore cardboard, foam core board, or whatever material you have on hand.

While this is designed for a Lulzbot Mini 1 or 2, you can extend the length of the PVC pipes to fit around your 3D printer.

More on this can be found on my YT channel!
