Description

I designed this because I noticed issues with the PTFE tube going into the hot end. When printing larger pieces where the hot end has to move towards the limits of it's travel, especially in the corners, the tube really pinches and can cause binding on the filament. The standard led riser helps, but doesn't go quite high enough. I replaced the PTFE tube with a slightly longer piece to allow the angle going in to be smoother and more straight. This riser allows ample “head” room plus adds additional functionality with built in vents that you can open and close without having to remove the top glass.

 

Vents use M3 x 10mm SHCS bolts with washers to mount to the main ring.

 

*** Note about the dovetail connections***

These are designed to be pretty tight. You will probably need a small block of wood and a hammer or mallet to tap them together. I just set the pieces on a nice flat surface and tapped together till the top is flush.

had some printing issues but that was down to user error. model looks great, and the led lights are from inland/microcenter. I used the 5v usb behind the screen on the p1s to connect it all.

Any issues with how it fits? Wasn't sure if there was anything major differences between the x1x and p1 for sizes.

Great work and excellent model !!!!!! This thing is perfect. It fits so so nicely. I used a small hammer on the slide joints and no issues as the fit is perfect. I did mod the vent covers to have no handle. I wanted a clean look and I can just slide them with my fingers. Removed the handle and printed them upside down so they would have build plate texture. I did have one small area on the little thin rim at the top crack slightly similar to what @kevman had, but its so small I cannot really even see it. It happened while I was handling it. And that has nothing to do with you. I rate it a 10. Printed in Geeetech PLA I gotta get some LED strips. Any recommendations?

I really like this model but unfortunately I found the top section to be very fragile and it broke on one of my pieces. I ended up using a 3-D pen to weld it back together. I’m hoping it holds up in a long-term perhaps a 45° chamfer might help keep that stronger not sure.

Could be a filament issue. I didn't see any issues with PLA+.

I tried to make this with PETG, but there were two printing failures, and the third time was successful, but the joint was quite tight and eventually broke. So, I gave more tolerance only to the joints and the 4th attempt was successful. Fortunately, the size fit well. I always run into trouble when I try to make something big with PETG, so when I use up all the spools I have, I don't plan on using them anymore.

I had the same issue with PETG. I sanded the joints, but still ended up breaking during assembly. Printed PLA and went together perfectly.

I like it a lot. It's a perfect fit. For those asking, the LED strip is from https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09SHKLNTQ?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 Pretty much any LED strip will work.

Tolerances were a bit tight.. otherwise good build and the LEDs make a huge difference in seeing inside the enclosure.
