Here’s a part of a cabinet in my wardrobe where my printer lives. It’s a bit noisy with all those hard surfaces so I am just about to put up some foam padding on all 5 sides.

Is that stupidly dangerous?

You can see I have a smoke alarm there, but it won’t stop a fire on its own.

Edit: the cabinet has no door, it’s always open like in the photo, but the wardrobe door is generally closed. The room has some ventilation so smells do go away.

    Do you close the door? If not, I’d think you’d be fine. Even if you do close the door, it might still be okay, idk.

      This cabinet has no door. I should have said so. It’s always open like this, but the wardrobe door is generally closed.

        Oh, if there’s airflow it’s probably fine. The question I had was how hot would the whole thing get while printing.
