RE:
I designed an enclosure with 8020 extrusions, plexiglass sides and front (double layer with an air gap), and aluminum sheet top, back, and bottoms (also double layer with an air gap between. This air gap will be filled with 1" fiberglass insulation). I have all the parts in my garage and am going to try and get it put together in the next week or two.
RE: Where are you putting yours?
I tried to an image of my setup but option avaible challenge and I could not work out which paper clip looking icon would work. I tried both but no go. Any instructional feedback would be apprecisted
RE: Where are you putting yours?
Here I try again. I reduced the pixel size to below 2500 and all good this time. This image is of my bedroom setup on top of my chest of drawers, all ready and waiting for my XL to arrive.
RE: Where are you putting yours?
Very nice.
I have build this. Top XL - Bottom Mk4+Enclosure. The rolls can be lifted, so it is stable and moveable.

RE: Where are you putting yours?
I realized recently... Be sure that vibrations from one printer can not be felt by the other. My XL repeatedly failed bed leveling because it's on the same table as an Input Shaping enabled MK4 while it was printing. And the MK4 is on 2 concrete pavers with vibration dampeners underneath them. It still shook the table enough to foil the load cell on the XL. (I assume the opposite would also be true for starting a MK4 print while the XL is printing something that causes lots of shaking). I guess i need something softer underneath the pavers to see if that can absorb some more table-shake.
