I recently Repaired/converted a Denford A3 HSR-i2 router which is fully enclosed and the main issue with this router is the heat generated.
It used a Porter cable router with much larger fan than the Kress and still suffered with the heat. Between the Router and the Steppers the heat inside the cabinet affected the overall performance and in the end is what killed this machine.

So I suggest if you do enclose that you fit fans to pull heat out and cold air into the cabinet.
Fit Fans and/or heat sinks on the steppers to prolong life and still have decent performance.
