Description
This bucket is designed to catch dirty water when cleaning the pump filter of LG washing machines. It was specifically developed for the LG F14WD96TH2, but will likely fit other LG models with a similar pump filter position and height.
When opening the filter, water often flows out uncontrollably and can make a mess on the floor. This bucket fits underneath the filter opening and helps to safely collect the wastewater during maintenance.
The model is printed in two separate parts and assembled after printing.
The design was fully created from scratch, but inspired by a similar model by 3DPrintz on MakerWorld: https://makerworld.com/en/models/1765116-lg-washing-machine-filter-drain-tray-a1-poop-bucke?from=search#profileId-1878334
My version has a much thinner spout to easily fit in the gap under the filter opening. I needed to dramatically slow down the print speed for the spout to prevent curling on the thin sections.
Edit:
I’ve added v2, which is now parametric. Once you determine the required diameter, height and spout length for your washing machine, you can simply update these values in the spreadsheet.
Diameter: the outside diameter of the filter housing
Height: the distance from the center of the filter to the ground
For example, my LG F14WD96TH2 requires a diameter of 76 mm ,a height of 100 mm and a spout length of 50 mm.
This model was created using FreeCAD version 1.2.0dev.
