I made an enclosure for build-in induction cooking hobs. The build-in models are usually much cheaper and have better features than the free-standing ones. The corner blocks and ventilation grills are 3D printed and the side panels are 6mm thick aluminium composite plates. The plates are glued to the corner blocks using epoxy.

The price of the ACP plates and glue combined is still far cheaper than the difference between build-in and free-standing induction hobs and it's quite a simple model.

Here is the model and design file.

hell yeah, i hate how normal it is to have everything built into the same device, it's so inflexible for basically no reason!
Much better to have things separate, so you can replace them independently or maybe skip the oven entirely and just put the cooktop on, say, the dishwasher.
