Description
I wanted something that could pool water from a potential leak in any spigots under the kitchen/bathroom sinks and have a leak sensor sit in the lowest point so that it has the best chance at identifying even the smallest of leaks.
I added screw holes to the design (on each side) in case you want to mount it with screws, but it should also be light enough to use double-sided foam tape, etc.
The design is as wide as the Prusa Mini (18cm), but can be stretched in a slicer for anyone with larger print beds.
I've also included models for a “slide” (optional), which will allow you to catch water from another nearby spigot and have it drip down into the tray. My hot and cold spigots were too far apart to cover both with one tray, so the slide basically extends the coverage you can get from a single leak sensor. There are 3 models: 1 without screw holes, 1 with screw holes to allow the leaked water to flow to the left, and 1 with screw holes to allow the leaked water to flow to the right
You can print out as many slides as you need to make a waterfall that will cover the needed width between spigots. Just realize that a very small leak might not be able to make it down multiple slides before evaporating.
