    different brands of pla do seem to have different 'smells'.
    I was using one the other day that really did smell like maple syrup.
    Mostly I don't detect any noticeable odour.

    So if you're reacting or allergic to one brand of pla - try others.

    You don't actually need or want an airtight enclosure.
    A basic box with holes at the bottom and a fan exhaust to tumble dryer ducting that goes out the window is what you need.

    That ways you are maintaining airflow over the machine and the print - keeping it from overheating, but also removing any fumes from your workshop.

    So some cheap plywood/maf/fibreboard - 3-5mm would be fine. Some 100mm ducting, couple printed adaptors and one of these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/calimaero-I...3840175&sr=8-6

    It's all about maintaining negative air pressure around the printer - so that the airflow is into the print volume and out of the room.

    And just what does "Edubirdie" have to do with the OP?
    A troll?

    I've considered an enclosure, but neither my wife nor I have noticed any odor. Just using PLA for now.
