This is a dismountable 3D printer enclosure I built specially for my E3D BigBox printer, but you can adapt it easily for any other size printer. It can be disassembled and stored when not in use. The principle is simple; the case is built with square (and hollow) aluminum tubes connected with 3D printed corner pieces. In every corner piece (except for the roof), I glued a small (10x10x4 mm) neodymium magnet (see the pictures), making it very easy to dismantle or rebuild the case. The whole enclosure can be built-up within a minute.
The side perspex panels are mounted with magnets so they can be taken off in case you need to access the printer for maintenance.
You can place a 80mm fan in order to regulate the temperature, but I found that the temperature hardly comes higher than 35°C, even when printing with the heated bed at 120°C.
Printing filament used: PLA and Taulman Alloy 910

I printed the corner pieces and the hinges with Taulman Alloy 910. You can
