Hey all.
So here I am in the middle of a 16 hour print in my room with my computer... my god it's hot.
I have a ceiling fan, but im too afraid to turn the sucker on and ruin the print. So I got to thinking
about enclosures. Looked around and saw a few neat ones online. Actually looking to build this door now:
Also looking at these feet to help keep the under belly cool:
But as i read a few post, over heating on the motors can be an issue? They are already hot to the touch as is.
So I go to wondering.. on the side panels where you can clearly see the motor area... why aren't there any kind of fans? Even the small ones would be a big help. perhaps even a heat sink area on the motors. Can we buy side panels for the ultimaker 2+?
For the top I was thinking about simply extending it a little bit with some clear panels and leaving the top open just to block drafts. With those upgrades and the heated bed it shouldnt be much of a problem?
