2018-06-18 - Check out the latest v7 model at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2967526 for its improved features and shorter print time. This updated version is identical to V2 but designed specifically to fit snugly within a 4-inch pipe, ensuring complete encapsulation and eliminating micro-leaks. I plan to insert it fully into a clear pipe so that the holes can be easily drilled out to tap M6 screws. It will likely require some force due to its tight fit. For the original V2 design, visit http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1593815. 2016-06-03 - I have revised the file to decrease the top diameter by 1.5mm for a better fit within the ID of a standard 4-inch pipe. 2017-09-04 - This new version has been optimized to reduce print time and material usage while maintaining functionality. It should not compromise performance in any way. This design addresses several printing-related issues, including: No more bridging occurs due to the reduced excess area. The bottom is hollowed out for easier filling with a sealant if necessary. I have removed unnecessary plastic to save print time and material. My problems with printing include: Micro-leaks between layers that occur very slowly. If you know how to avoid leaks or have a cost-effective solution, please share your expertise. A cell housing for seven tubes designed specifically for water fuel cells, compatible with 4-inch inner diameter clear pipe. The tubes it is intended for have the following dimensions: Outer tube: 1" in diameter Inner tube: 3/4" in diameter Length of outer tube: 77mm Length of inner tube: 90mm Please note that these are not the same dimensions as Stan Meyer's tubes. I do not make any claims regarding effectiveness, fit, or suitability. This design is simply for informational purposes. When printing, it is recommended to maintain a wall thickness greater than 1mm. The holes for contacts are 5mm in diameter and will need to be tapped for M6 screws. I have also designed some improved caps.
