    • All clear acrylic panels come from the factory with a protective film on BOTH SIDES of the panel. Be sure to remove it all prior to assembly.

    • NOTE: The color of your protective film may be a different color than the clear you see here. This is normal. The acrylic underneath is still the same clear in the finished product.

    Protective foil is not on all surfaces. The two bearing the big logos don't (at least not in the Prusa edition!), the lasered surface is unprotected.

    • You can separate these parts from the strips either by hand or trimming them clean with flush cutters.

    • Suggestion: You can also leave the parts on the strips for the moment. Then just cut them loose right as they're needed.

    • The default pattern for these plugs is shown in the Assembly Video, but can be positioned anywhere as necessary.

    The holiday of May 1st caused that the assembly was waiting for two days. Now, after those 2 days, 13 (out of 28) plugs have popped out all by themselves, almost half of them. And they were all fully inserted as shown in pic 3.

    Oliver Kluge - Reply

    Step 9 doesn't work for me. I cannot insert the plugs as shown in pic 3. Either the dimensions (distance between the two ridges on the plug, the one that covers the hole and the one that holds the plug in it) are wrong (distance too small or acrylic too thick), or the flexible material is too stiff. When I push the plug in as deep as in pic 3, which requires a considerable amout of force, tension builds up in the flexible plug material that will over the cause of one night pull the plug loose, or out altogether...

    Oliver Kluge - Reply

    Actually the plug looks like in pic 2, not as in the yellow part of pic 3. There you can see the "bell shape" of the outer ridge/outer part of the plug, that gets squashed flat. My conlusion (IMHO) is that these plugs are a non-optimal choice for this kind of mounting procedure...

    Oliver Kluge -

    Actually, even pic 3 shows the problem, so assume it's the design. Look at the dent in the outer surface of the plug! This dent comes out of the tension exerted by the inner ridge pulling on the plug, thus deforming the plug. This inner tension in the plug pulls the plug out, as the material strives to reassume its original, unbent form! Bear in mind that the very (!) sharp edges of the laser cut acrylic tend to damage the surface of this inner ridge, the inner ridge deteriorates if the plug pulls itself out and gets re-inserted, and then cannot exert the forcec neede to keep the plug in.

    A better aproach would be to have plugs where the distance between inner and outer ridge equals the thickness of the acrylic. Then the plug would hold in place solely by nature of it's form, not of inner tension. This has far better prospects of longterm stability, IMHO.

    As it turns out, the actual Base Stringer does not seem to be rectangular, it measures a width an the narrowest side of slightly less than 22 millimeters, at the broadest side approx. 26 millimeters! And mine carries a burn mark, a line next to the middle hole. I contacted support on this issue (if it is an issue).

    Also it would be VERY helpful if you could double-check that you use colors for parts to be assembled consistently. Here they differ (look at the use of turquios for two different parts in pic 1 & 3!) This is very confusing if two parts are extremely similar like parts 11 & 13. Which one is to be stacked on top of which? Which one comes out to the front and which is on the inner side? Without knowing (and the video doesn't help, because if covers a different version) I have now decided to stack the one that is little broader on top of the one that is a little narrower, in order to close the "gap" at the bottom of the exit panel...

    Is it correct that the mounting position of the Dome Label appears to be tilted clockwise? The two parallel lines (the upper and lower edge of the adhesive) do not run parallel to the edges of the Faceplate? It looks kind of wrong, but if I align the adhesive to the Faceplate, then the engravings on the top right and lower left side come out visibly from underneath the Dome Label...

Thanks for these instructions. As we have purchased the Prusa edition, we do have some parts left over with no instructions. We could figure out how to add the lock, also the gaskets are pretty obvious. What is missing is a hint that the lid - because of the bow introduced to it - will only close tight if the lock gets used (and only in lock position)...

We do have one piece of precision cut wood which definitely looks like it is a regular part of the assembly. It also fits inside nicely. But: It has five holes which have a larger bore on the broader side of the wood. There is also a small plastic bag with three very large screw-like wall plugs and three very long (!) brass screws. The wood, by itself, looks like it is intended as a wall mount for the assembled box, but I have no idea to what kind of wall these wall plugs are intended. If the wood gets fastened to a wall, this would definitely need some washers under the screws or the wood gets damaged. And what is the purpose of the larger bore?
