Hose barb for pool pump
thingiverse
I needed an adapter for my pool pump adapter so I designed one in Tinkercad instead of driving to buy one. As a novice at 3D design, the part might not be perfect, but it adapts a pump from 2-1/2 threaded inlet to 1-1/4 hose using a slip-on threaded collar. This is my first original design, so I welcome any suggestions before printing it. The printing process will update with functionality once completed. Update 1 The print was successful at 100% infill; I set the infill that high because I didn't want the pump to break the adapter when tightening the hose clamp with my impact drill. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures after printing before putting it on the pump. It also turned out that I needed a 1-1/2" adapter instead of 1-1/4", so there's a small leak due to the hose being just big enough for water to seep through. I edited the original design and made it 1-1/2", adding it here too; I'll print that one today. The first adapter took 13 hours to print because of the 100% infill and 65% speed setting.
