An enclosure for 3D printer, having a frame of fibreglass tent poles and a fibreglass twill skin.
By choosing appropriate materials and joining methods it can be made substantially flame resistant.
This is something of a work-in-progress, and I offer it here more as an idea than a readily buildable item.
I was not especially pleased with the result, but decided to keep it until the winter at least, and see if it helps with print quality in my cold garage.
Though already, I think, it's offered some benefit when printing with ASA filament. The inside does get quite warm when the bed is at 95C, and the surface quality of the parts has improved.
And I have more peace of mind to go to sleep with the printer running!
I had planned the tent to be collapsable (after removal of the upper crossbars), therefore the lower joints are hinged. But I must have miscalculated, as in practice the fabric prevents complete folding of the structure.
The frame used a set of 7 mm diameter tent po
