Tube connector

thingiverse

My wife is determined to create a net cage to safeguard the butterflies of our veggie patch. She already has some plastic pipe in her possession, so she wanted to utilize that but was stumped on how to connect them. That's when she called upon me for assistance. After a brief moment of contemplation, I concluded that it would be much simpler to design and print some connectors to enable the pipes to be linked together seamlessly. The outer diameter of the pipe measures 16mm, but after conducting several trials, I adjusted the inner diameter of the connectors to 16.8mm. To our delight, these connectors fit perfectly. I'm thrilled that my wife is overjoyed with the outcome and hopes that this information will be helpful for others who may face similar challenges in the future. Included are files for both 90-degree and 180-degree connectors. The printing process was a breeze, as I opted to print without support, resulting in beautifully crafted connectors.
