Description

Background

I needed to water my plants while gone from home, so decided to use a Wemos D1 Mini running ESPHome, a relay, a water pump, and some pvc tubing to achieve that. The pump I got only has 1 output nozzle, and I wanted to water 5 plants with it, so I made an adapter. For future changes and for anyone else that needs something similar, I made it (mostly) parametric in Fusion.

 

Adjusting parameters

I added parameters with comments that should explain what they're for. If you're making bigger changes things are going to break and will need to be fixed by running through the timeline and fixing broken features / re-selecting edges, bodies, etc.. I've tried to annotate as much as I could within the file to give clues.

 

STL description

The stl file uploaded takes a 6mm ID 9mm OD PVC tube as input, and 5x 4mm ID 6mm OD PVC tube as outputs.

 

Print settings

Nothing special.

I printed with the input nozzle facing down. The inner roof needs some supports, I used manually painted tree supports. I used a brim inside and outside with a 0mm object gap as my first print without brim failed. Your mileage may vary.

0.8mm layer height, first layer 0.16mm
