This enclosure builds on to the existing frame. I designed it so you could have full access to the print from any angle. Some things may have to be modified for different configurations/sizes. Step files provided so you can alter the cad as necessary.
I used clear polycarbonate 1/4" sheet for the doors and vertical edges, cut with a jigsaw and finished with a belt sander. That was just a tad frustrating because jigsaw will walk and I suck at that. I put in about 15° miter on the center seams. PC is pretty expensive and 1/4" is overkill. 1/8" would have sufficed. PC is much better than acrylic though, as it wont crack easily. Also I use springs to hold all doors shut, but obviously you could install magnets or latches or whatever. Once constructed, this structure will expose how misaligned your towers are. I recommend an auto calibration. A side effect I have noticed from stiffening up the structure
