Mike, an enclosure is recommend not for the fumes, but to keep the part temperature high for better fusing. I think I am running around 220DegC nozzle temps for the nylon.
I had to 3D print a new cowl for the Q-hydro(you know so I can reclaim my record) and at only 1mm thick it's strong and after sealing with some epoxy it's nice and water tight.
