3" Pool Chlorinatior with Tourist Duck Lid

cults3d

I required a chlorinator for use with 3-inch tablets, but Tixhyl's version was designed for smaller 1-inch tablets. I liked the design, though, so why reinvent the wheel? Simply rescaling the existing model wouldn't work because it would have changed the size and shape of the holes. So I loaded Sketchup and redrew the design from scratch with adjusted dimensions. Not being satisfied with that, though, I thought this needed a lid, and nothing looks better floating in the pool than a rubber duck. Unfortunately, I'm not too good at organic modeling yet, so I borrowed 3DprinterOS's totally awesome Tourist Duck. I did the merge for this in Blender because it imports existing STLs easier than Sketchup. After printing, I painted the colored portions of the duck with Plaid Folk Art Multi-Surface acrylic paints. Another Sketchup model - debunking the myth that Sketchup is useless in 3D printing.
