the knob, and the assembly will look like the illustration to the right. Don't forget the
mid-panel connectors at the back, left and top.
As with the front door, adjust how the door hangs by loosening the hinge screws, using
the strike plates to hold the entrance to the latches, and then tightening the hinge
screws.
You'll need to bend the strike plates slightly to hold onto the thinner acrylic on the
side.
4. Assemble Back
When viewed from the back, the back of the
enclosure is shown to the right. The four corner
connectors are mirror images of the front. The
large hole is either for an air filter (purchased
separately) or can be covered up by 3D printing a
cover using M4 10mm screws. (There's a link to
the cover on the product page.)
On the top and each side are "mid-panel corner
connectors," which are simple L-shapes.
The large 80mm hole is either for the included fan by itself, an air filter (purchased
separately)/fan combo, or it can be covered up by a plastic disk depending on how
much airflow you want.
Note that the fan, either by itself or paired with a filter or vent, is necessary to draw air
over the power supply. This both heats the air inside the enclosure AND cools down
the power supply, extending its life. Only use the circular disk (not included) to cover
up the hole if you have moved the power supply outside of the enclosure or simply
don't care about power supply longevity, which is not unreasonable given the slight
chance of a power supply failure.
