Hi
Looks great can you do a dual drive enclosure?

Yes, I was thinking of this, or making a modular design where a second drive can slot under this one.
The one I shared above was made in parts , and is a bit of a prototype really, but I think the whole thing can be printed as 1 whole enclosure. The same goes for a double enclosure, as the dimensions fit within the limits of a standard 3d printer.
Also, the Matt effect was achieved by spraying it with primer and painting it with black acrylic.

Yes, of course. I only had yellow at the time. I've ordered some Matt black pla.
