<p>This is a great part I designed because I couldn't find any good ones available online. &nbsp;I used it on my project you can take a look at here <a href="https://imgur.com/gallery/2mQM6Cb">https://imgur.com/gallery/2mQM6Cb</a> Though very useful I accidentally deleted the design from my Fusion 360 account… Forever it will remain as is. I installed this about 1.5" above the base of the bucket so I never got 100% drainage. However! if you put it at the bottom of the bucket it should be much better.</p><p>Here's the skinny:</p><ul><li>Print with food safe PLA or PETG @ 100% infill.</li><li>You need to drill a hole 1.5" hole in the bucket I think… I actually forgot the exact size to be honest so I suggest you print it first to confirm the hole size.</li><li>You need some sort of grommet on the inside to seal it. I used a rubber sheet I cut to fit.</li><li>Place the grommet you find/make/ or print around the male screw side of the main body. Then feed that from the inside hole to the outside.</li><li>Screw on the screw cap from the outside</li><li>Screw in the inner drain “filter”.</li><li>Connect a 1" water tube on the outside and screw on a stainless steel hose clamp.</li></ul><p>Bingo bango you got yourself a bucket drain.</p><p>Follow Syk3DGrow on Instagram for updates.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
