Another model in a series of upgrades to the Original Prusa Enclosure in an effort to plug up the openings that Prusa provides for easy user upgrades.

But there are a few large openings that could benefit from being covered if you don't use all the options.  If you are interested in plugging them up, read on, but get ready to apply some firm pressure to get this one to snap in place.

Features:

  1. One fast and easy-to-print part, designed to print without supports.
  2. Snap on and snap off, no need for fasteners.
  3. Keeps the enclosure's Hexagonal design theme.
  4. Blocks air gaps and only lets the LCD cable pass through.
  5. Does not accidentally pop out - you have to be very intentional to remove it (see instructions in the pics attached).
     

Printing recommendations:

  1. Use ABS/ASA or PETG.  PLA will not survive the high enclosure temperatures (once you plug up all the openings around the enclosure.

For best results for heat retention, I suggest you download and print my other designs as well:
