Description
Used this for a water pump
Important to know.
It is almost impossible to print items that are really watertight. It must be expected that a few drops get lost. Luckily the extreme small holes get closed by itself over the time. Maybe by dirt in the water or whatever. Se the picture.
I grind the insert adapters a bit to flatten the surface on the sides for more precise fit.
To get it quite OK, you may increase the shell thickness in the slicer. I did from 2 to 4 layers.
