Trailer cap

thingiverse

Tired of rainwater flooding over your trailer's cover? You may not be, but I was fed up with this common issue! That's why I came up with a practical solution to tackle the problem: designing and printing a distinctive peak to go on top of my trailer. This simple addition features an inclined design that channels water away from the roof, preventing it from pooling in one place. I made sure these joints fit together easily with 21.5mm waste pipes, widely available at any good hardware store like Screwfix (visit http://www.screwfix.com/p/overflow-waste-pipe-21-5mm-10-x-3m-pack-of-10/18180 for the exact one I used). To let you adjust it to your needs, the OpenSCAD file is included. You can also slide on edge pieces along the side of the trailer - a smooth operation. On the ridge piece itself, there's an integral feature: a down-facing prong that allows you to use additional pipe for support if necessary, but personally I've never needed it. When printing, do it with 15% infill without any support structures required
