PekkaNF:
Those look good. You printed the same design out of PLA and Pet-G? Are they same size?

awemawson:
I've not actually measured them, but as the lids and boxes are interchangeable I'd be very surprised if they were not essentially identical

awemawson:
Last year I rigged up a 'Hydroponic Pig Cooler', and had occasion to use it yesterday and today:

Trouble is, one of the fittings was badly cracked and instead of a mist was giving a spout of water - probably frost over the winter.

So what do you do if you have a 3D printer - print one of course  :lol:

Initially I drew up and printed just a simple end cap to block off the offending outlet while I was drawing up the proper fitting, and this went quite well

awemawson:
Then I drew up the proper thing, but the spray orifice screws on with a M9 x 1mm pitch thread - rather fine to print and I have no die that size.

Having printed a 'threadless' one I thought that I'd have a go at the thread setting the printer to its finest resolution but still the 0.4 mm nozzle, and to my amazement it produced a working thread  :ddb:

I'm VERY impressed with this printer  :thumbup:

Pete.:
Not surprised, that's bloody good.
