Skewer Tent Enclosure

Skewer Tent Enclosure

Working with what I had I made an enclosure / tent for my Z9M3 CoreXY printer.

I have left and right version of a 45degree angle for holding grill skewers that are around 6mm so some work will be needing to be done to fit . hole is smaller than I needed, as the skewers are of varying size I made the hole to tightly fit the smallest I found.

Cut four skewers so they end up as tall as your filament tubes, once heated the heat will raise the roof up. I connected the side skewers with another skewer to make them sturdier.

Once the 4 parts on unit make a tent shape out of them, some duct tape works good, just make sure no sticky tape part is left out as the emergency tent will want to stick to them.

I then added 4 magnets to each corner. The corners should be at the Hight of the filament tubes. Once closed and heated the heat will raise the roof up, so do not worry.

I used one blanket for the back and left side. (using magnet to attach)
Then one blanket for the roof and right side.
I then place the 3rd blanker to be the front “door” .

While the room is dark and if you have lights on your bed you can see through the blankets.

No need to tape up seems and such, I may during winter, but right now in summer the gaps allow excess heat to escape. And I can adjust these upper holes to allow heat to escape. The tents just hang, no sealed or lower connections

With using magnets the sides can be easily removed, and if you fold from door and right side over top, you can remove whole unit as a single piece to place aside unit it is needed again.
