Replacement parts for water cube collapsible 5 gallon container

thingiverse

These are replacement parts for a 5 gallon collapsible water storage cube. These cubes are great for camping, but the valve parts break easily or get lost. There are 4 parts: #### Valve Handle A: Direct replacement for the original valve handle, assuming the valve base is not broken. #### Valve Nut: Direct replacement for the original threaded part that attaches the valve to the container. Can also be used with the below 'B' valve. #### Valve Handle B & Valve Base B: if your original valve plug is broken/lost you will need to print both of these parts, which are a different design from the original. The original valve base design is not conducive to 3D printing, it would never seal properly. #### General Notes: Tolerances are tight the surfaces that rotate against eachother for the valve seal, **may require some adjustment on your printer**. I recommend adjusting the valve handle with **horizontal expansion** until it fits the base properly. Also recommend using a dab of **silicone grease** or **petroleum jelly** to lubricate and help it seal better. #### Print Settings: - Printed with 3 walls and 30% infill. - Adjust horizontal expansion as needed. - Support recommended for Valve Base B only.
