I appreciate this, the challenge is that the wife won't let me get away with that level of jank (the balcony door opens into the living room) ... :-)

In the next life I'll get a house and build it around the 3D printer.

You can do it non-jank. I just realized there are products for this (mostly around portable AC exhaust vents). Google 'sliding door vent kit'.

Or just 3d print a new wife? (joking)

That does look not-so-bad, but ... unfortunately we also don't have a sliding door. Nor sliding windows. Germany goes for those mechanically complicated multi-direction tilt/swing hinges instead. They're super mental (and metal), and break my aspirations.

I know, I'm not an easy customer.

I've seen too many terrible Benchys in reviews to fall for this one!
