Shover/kitchen drain cover - high flow, customizable

thingiverse

I've started modeling a kitchen sink drain cover because all the models I've tried to print and use have been too restrictive for water flow, so our drains just don't work with them. This model has bigger holes and is really easy to print. It was one of my first models in OpenSCAD, and it's parametric, allowing you to edit it for your drain size. The kitchen drain cover is as deep as possible, keeping the gross stuff from washing dishes inside. The shower drain cover has an upper part that's flat, making it easy to sweep away hair. I usually print it from PLA because it's easier for me, but after one pasta drainage in the kitchen sink, it tends to warp a bit and looks melty. So, it's advisable to use ABS in this case. The parts are oriented correctly for printing. The kitchen drain cover should be printed with supports, while the shower drain cover doesn't need them. I'll add pictures of finished parts as soon as I need a new one. The old ones are used and nobody wants to see these parts in their used state. Enjoy your clean drain pipes.
