Water Table Ryobi pump

Battery Powered Kids Water Table With the fittings in this "Thing" and the Ryobi water pump I made previously (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4425666), you can have a constant flow of water for tons of fun with the kids. I printed the water table washers using Sainsmart TPU, while printing the other pieces with Hatchbox ABS. No supports were needed in either case. Once you have the files printed, it's easy to see where everything goes. The water table pump adapter and washers go on the bottom of the table - this is where the water is sucked into the pump. The faucet and upper filter go in the top cup of the water table. You can turn the faucet in different directions to produce a tornado effect, as you can see from the pictures. If you don't have TPU, you'll want to glue the fitting to the table, and the upper filter and faucet may need to be glued as well. Without the TPU washers, the fitting will leak and get water all over the pump and battery. The other thing you'll need to do is seal the bottom area of the water table - especially where the clear hose runs to the top cup - or it will leak all over. I used some foam and hot glue to seal it, and now it leaks very little. I think the table was designed to leak so that a hose could be connected and water run constantly through it, but that wastes a lot of water really fast. Enjoy!
