3" PVC Rain Barrel Diverter with 1.25" outlet

thingiverse

This is an automatic overflow Rain Barrel Diverter for 3" PVC Pipe with a 1.25" side take-off that fits 1.25" sewer pump drain hose. My rain barrel had an opening that fits 1.25" hose and I couldn't find a design that used 3" PVC. Water flows to the lower cone and overflows to the side take-off which is positioned just above the height of the rain barrel. When the rain barrel fills-up water will back-up into the rain diverter and flow over the upper cone and down the middle of the diverter. Untested in a real rainfall . . . just in the sink! I will update when I get the first rain-fall :-) Only needs support for the bottom cone inner ledge and the side-tube. Depending on your printer overhang ability, you may need supports inside the tube as well. the upper cone does-not need supports. It's a long print - I used .3mm layer height and it's about 9-hours. It is a good fit on 3" PVC pipe. Could be water proofed with glue - but I don't think it needs to be waterproof.
