About this model
This is version 2 of with lots of improvements: #####UPDATE V2.1 I uploaded three new files: Chamber, Base and Cover. With these, you can stick the Chamber inside the Base. If you've already printed the Chamber V2.0, cut the little "L"'s on the sides off. Now it should fit in the new Base. #####V 2.0 - all parts should now fit nicely together, without filing (or at least much less filing) - the acrylic fits now in place by an holding mechanism (btw ignore the hole in the acrylic in the pictures, it's the acrylic from version 1) - no more need for an metal grid / netting glued under the chamber part - the holes at the base are now bigger to let the water flow more easily Theoretically the grid size is 1x1mm, but in print it's much smaller (at least on my printer). Please watch your printer …
