Ikea Platsa Modular Dual Prusa Enclosure (MINI/MK3s/Bear)

Second Attempt with some Changes now.

!!Work is still in progress. Materials list and files are not complete at the moment!!

waiting for my second anti vibration mat and a new (smaller) stone for the Mini.

All work will be continued here for now. Rebuilt the thing, edited some parts, Additionally I added the Prusa Mini and Swapped my MK3s to Bear System. Some parts will be added in future.

If you need additional info, ask in the comments section, so everybody can read it :) Feel free to ask, remix, print, edit and say thanks.

After my IKEA Lack table was a bit too unstable for me and would've optically no longer fit well into my new apartment, I decided to build another (strong) housing for my printers. In the print files you can find some Remixes or Self creations of 3d printed parts used to make this enclosure.

This enclosure is modular, because you can stack them over each other or place and connect another next to each other. Like a big Kallax system out of Platsas :D
