Ikea Lack Enclosure

Basics

• This is a version of a 3D Printer Enclosure that uses Ikea Lack tables as the main framing element
• Various designs use different 3D Printed brackets, and are set up for different filament storage workflows
• This page aims to document existing Open Source Designs, Derive the best setup, and make a BOM (also maybe document User: Eric 's Build Progress)

Table Connection Only

Table Reinforcement

• Due to Ikea Lack tables being made from low grade Engineered Wood Products to reduce weight and cost, they aren't very rigid
  • This is compounded by the sole connection being dual sided bolts in a drilled but not tapped hole
• Thus Reinforcements and Alternative Joinery can be of use

Filament Guides/Ports + FDM Filament Drybox Mounting

• A Design Posted to the website Printables by "AcE Krystal" Titled "Improved MMU Filament Guide for LACK IKEA table"
  • The MMU is notoriously finicky, so other systems (or just normal single filament printing) shouldn't need this, but regardless having a slit rather than a fixed hole does seem to make sense due to the x axis travel moving that vertical line where the filament should optimally be
• If using an upper level for FDM Filament Storage a hole and filament guide will be needed
