The CD-Rom Motor Pump is a free printable 3D model from Thingiverse by Skimbal. This is a derivative of Madox's Mini Centrifugal Pump, I simplified the design and adapted it to be printable on a makerbot without support material. You can download the STL file from the original listing below and print it at home.
About this model
This is a derivative of Madox's Mini Centrifugal Pump, I simplified the design and adapted it to be printable on a makerbot without support material. I also modified it so that the motor from an old CD-Rom drive can run the pump. These motors are all about the same size, and anyone who likes to take things apart more then likely has a few laying around. In the photos I am powering a 6 volt motor with a 3.5 volt battery. I imagine more power would equal more water moved.
