Pool Skimmer Flapper

thingiverse

The skimmer component floats vertically in the pool when pumps are turned off, preventing debris from re-entering the water. It is connected to a plastic housing mounted on concrete ground. My 15-year-old pool's part was damaged and failed to float due to worn-out hooks. The replacement print worked flawlessly, made with natural ABS from Zentoolworks, featuring 3 shells and 10% honeycomb infill for buoyancy. This was my largest flat printing challenge at 210x130mm.
