Bin & Container Drain

thingiverse

I required a drain for my 17-gallon hydroponics container, but I couldn't find one available on the market. Instead, I designed a custom model around rubber hose washers that I had lying around. These washers can easily be purchased from Amazon or your local hardware store. For the inside cap, I cut a piece of bicycle inner tube to fit perfectly. This project was created with Tinkercad, an online design platform where you can edit it and make changes as needed: https://www.tinkercad.com/things/kDCPWIahfRi Here are my print settings: * Printer: Wanhao Duplicator i3 v2 * Rafts: No * Supports: No * Resolution: 0.1mm * Infill: 100% * Material: PLA * Layer height: 0.1mm * Fill density: 100% * Printing temperature: 210 degrees Celsius * Bed temperature: 55 degrees Celsius * Support type: None * Platform adhesion: None I printed the drain with a layer height of 0.1mm and 100% infill to ensure it doesn't leak through the layers. However, I suspect that most people will be able to achieve good results with a layer height of 0.2mm and 20% infill. Your mileage may vary.
