I printed some more of the panel to 4545 extrusion connectors and mounted the sides on the base of my enclosure. Before there were only the 4545 half round corner posts on the base. Now I need to figure out what to do for the back and front. Considering adding a drawer to hold the miscellaneous junk that always accumulates around my printer (currently spread out in messy style on top). There are drawers at Ikea that would work perfectly, but their shipping time is over a month now thanks to Covid. I could print some but they would be a bit shallow. Also considering a door to create a smaller enclosure for my Ender3 below the big one. but more likely it will be filament storage since working on a printer near the ground would suck.
Below are some pics. Pardon the mess, it's still very much a work in progress. I was able to find something to fill the gaps between the panels and the extrusions. It is a felt tape which was not cheap, but should be enough for this whole project and then some. However due to the thickness I was only able to apply it to one side and the bottom.
I'm also re-working the door design and may re-print one to check it out. Still a lot to do on this and I would like to figure out a better filament storage setup (really anything is better than what I have now).
