Fish Pipe Cover

thingiverse

I'm planning to create a decorative cover for my pond's filter pipe, along with an additional hose that can connect to a 10mm copper pipe. The head will be printed in clear NinjaFlex, while the tail remains to be printed. I'm interested in experimenting with injecting paint into the infiltration cavity. To achieve a "nice" number of perimeters on the hose, I'll set my slicer to get an extrusion width of 0.75 (located under Print/Advanced in Slic3r). OpenSCAD files include: PondHose-fishy - This is the main object file where you can adjust diameters and other settings as needed. thread_calc & printer_settings allow you to make objects a set number of threads wide using the standard rectangle+2semicircle model. rodsandholes is a set of functions that enables setting the diameter and number of sides of a cylinder to be the correct internal or external diameter for a rod or a hole. metric_sizes includes a set of numbers which provides holes for metric bolts and nuts.
