Description

Cover the steel printing sheet of your Prusa printer and protect it from dust with this fitting top.
As it needs to be slightly bigger than the sheet itself, I constructed it as 4 jigsaw pieces that can be glued or melted together.

The glued or melted joins can be embellished and reinforced by the "Top Overlay", a flexible sheet that is glued on top and that will remind you to remove it before using the printer.
The overlay was printed in 3 colors by using the M600 gcode that allows to change the filament half way the printing process.

Assembly

I glued the pieces together with superglue and then melted the whole of the joins with the spoon of the modifi3d repair and modification-tool. The Top Overlay provides a nicer finish, covering most of the joins.

Note well the correct placement of all parts; Top left and right have a small notch. The bottom pars have some kind of small sleeve that fits onto the sheet, securing it from movement.
