Hi all! I was curious to see if anyone had any recommendations for an enclosure for the Ender V3 Neo. I found a few on Amazon, but they look like grow tents and wasn’t sure if that would work well. For a bit of context, it seems like an enclosure is a must have for ABS printing which is ultimately what I’m after.

Thanks everyone!

They work decently. I've never had an issue printing ABS with my comgrow one (I can actually print it easier than petg).

Although I am in the process of converting an old oven into a heated build chamber.

I don't. I dont print enough ABS to worry about fumes.

Although I do have a fan in my office door to suck air out (I also have a 55g aquarium and gaming rig, so it gets to 90F in there without it.

Thank you! That’s what I’ll go with

NP. You don't need a whole lot to get the chamber temps to be ABS friendly. I do recommend keeping it open if printing PLA, though.

Does it just get to hot for pla to cool if its closed up?

Yeah, it will affect the print quality because the layers don't cool off enough in between layers.
