UPDATE 2015-07-03 - The tolerances have been tightened slightly for an even better fit, ensuring that the printer is properly calibrated beforehand. The four-way and five-way tees are designed to fit snugly into 1/2" Schedule 40 PVC pipes, as part of a larger series of innovative 1/2" PVC fittings created to complement standard plumbing fittings. I added triangular holes to assist with glue drying, having noticed that air-tight seals in earlier iterations made it impossible for the glue to dry properly. Strategically placed ledges on top of horizontal holes make these prints possible without the need for supporting structures. Future additions to this series will be shared regularly as new designs become available. Anyone with a specific fitting in mind but not yet seen should let me know, and I'll do my best to create it. Feel free to create your own derivatives from these original fittings, tagging them with #HalfInchPVCFittings so the community can discover and build upon each other's ideas.
