Custom case for Reprap Huxley

I got inspiration from here and created my own enclosure for the Huxley. See attached pictures!

Below the first level, there is a spindle horizontally oriented and attached to a self-created and printed cylinder bearing. So no more ugly spindles in sight (as opposed to the picture, sorry for that...).

I am planning a similar box for my RepRap Mendel.

Did you use the quick connect from 80/20? Where did you get your 'smoked' acrylic from?

Thanks,

I got the colored acrylic from bouwplastics.nl (The Netherlands). But I suggest to just look for them on-line, there are lots of suppliers.

For the rest of the materials I surprisingly stumbled upon an on-line pet-shop. I suggest you do the same, there are lots of people making custom made cages for there animals and therefore these pet-shops have all the materials you need to make a nice aluminium enclosure yourself.
