Inflatable Pool Cap and Plug

thingiverse

This Thing is a replacement plug and cap designed specifically for the large inflate/deflate port of big inflatable kids pools. It consists of two parts: * A plug that fits snugly inside the large inflate/deflate port ("inflatable pool plug.stl") * A cap that screws onto the plug, providing a secure fit ("inflatable pool cap round smoother.stl") The cap part is a remix of an existing design, [Inflatable Pool Cap], created by jag. Thanks to the open-source publishing of the OpenSCAD code for this Thing, it was easy to modify the design to change the exterior from hexagonal to round and increase the resolution of the threads. I increased the stepsPerTurn value to 120 instead of the default 24, resulting in a smoother finish. I'd like to extend my gratitude to syvwlch for developing the screw library, which makes it possible to create threads in the cap. This library is essential for anyone who wants to customize the OpenSCAD source code for the cap.
