About this model
Although it doesn't need it, I made a cover for the mainboard of my Anet A8. My cats seem very interested in all the flickering lights and repairing cats and or 3D printers is expensive. I didn't want to have to add a fan, so the open hex grid should not obstruct airflow to the heat sinks. To attach the cover, just remove the M3 nuts and screw the M3 screws into the holes in the legs. The hole is just small enough to give the thread something to bite into, without being too hard to screw into. If you want something a little more secure, you could place the M3 nut over the hole, then press the nut into the plastic with a hot soldering iron, making sure you keep the nut level.
