 ====== 3D printer enclosure ======
-After purchasing a Prusa MK4, I wanted to put it in it's own enclosure with air-ventilation on it. This as many prints take a while, and the fumes are unpleasant an probably not as healthy.

+The hinges where rather large, but I got them to fit diagonally.
 ===== LED lights =====
 After finalizing the enclosure, I added additional LED lights to see what the printer was doing during late evening prints. Buying commercial LED's would be to straight forward, so I redesigned a smaller 2xLED driver PCB instead.

 Having a custom LED driver means that I could make the firmware compatible with my XnorDuino system, thus synchronizing dim and light temperature with the rest of the rooms ceiling lights.

 ==== Fan ====
 A fan mount was designed and 3D printed, using FreeCad. Which could then connect to the airvent outlet. A 3300 RPM desktop PWM fan was added inbetween, in order to provide enough pressure given the long outlet pipe.
+The PWM fan is controlled by a custom designed PWM controller, which hooks into the XnorDuino system. So the RPM is calculated based on the 3D printers nozzle temperature, which can be requested through the 3D printers API.
