7. Tighten Gaps
Once the enclosure is completely put together, it is time to ensure that each panel is
held tightly to each adjoining panel. The connectors are designed with a small amount
of play that allows you to make minor adjustments for the perfect fit.
1. Loosen screws on the panel to move.
2. Push that panel into place. You may need a friend to hold it tightly in the right spot.
3. Re-tighten the screws to hold the panel. Only tighten enough to hold the pieces
snuggly.
DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN!
These parts are sturdy, but they’re still all made of
plastic.
Repeat the process, going around the enclosure to ensure all panels are flush.
8. Assemble Spool Holder
Instructions to assemble the spool holder are
available online in the product description, but it’s
not too hard to wing it.
The location that will give the least resistance is
placing the spool holder directly to the printer's
left. However, many people who are low on
space put the spool holder on top, which
shouldn’t make too much of a di
ff
erence in print
quality.
Of course, if you don’t like this spool holder, you
can use whatever type of freestanding spool
holder you wish; hundreds of designs are
available on Thingiverse.
The filament feeds into the extruder through
the gaps in the side doors.
