Bottle drain grid for hydroponics (to help prevent clogs)

thingiverse

I use clay pellets in my small hydroponics system and found that occasionally the small ones could cause a clog. I created this simple drain grid to hold back the clay pellets and allow the water to flow at the bottom of a 2-liter bottle. Added the 3dponics project to sources as the design was inspired by the usage of the 3dponics drip nozzle with clay pellets I happen to be using. Hopefully this helps prevent some clogs. Instructions Printed with largest surface facing down. Solid infill was used but you may have some luck with less solid infill. I used transparent 1.75mm ABS as it is what I had most available.
