Cheap:
This housing is created with only €41. By using IKEA items. And items I already had.
Housing itself:
The housing is made of 3 IKEA LACK-tables.
The only table that is build like the manual says is the top table.
The second table is build upside-down by drilling the wholes for the legs/poles completely through the table top.
Also these legs/poles are cut in half length. 4 of these poles I used here, 2 others I used for the spool holder on top of the 3D-printer.
In the bottom table top I also drilled the holes through-all to fix the table upside-down.
Underneath I placed 4 IKEA RILL wheels.
Repetier-Server:
Underneath the K8200 is an old PC running windows 7 and repetier server. The dvd-drive was broken so i fixed this with a printed name tag.
I really wanted a stand-alone printer, because I didn’t want the printer to be in my living room everyday.
Make sure you make the right Fire-wall settings, otherwise the repetier-server won’t work. (Firewall accept repetier-server on your PC)

Door:
As it is hard to see, just believe me: the printer has only a left, right and backside window.
The front side is open. I’m still looking for a nice door to fit in it.
Spool holder:
At this moment (see picture) i’m printing a spool holder.
I’m building this with the remaining IKEA-lack legs/poles.
Camera surveilance:
I recently installed a camera on the printer server. Results:
