Gilmour Pattern Master Sprinkler Hood early models

thingiverse

Remix of the one Jester444 made. I found his did not fit my pattern master. I think they changed the design on the later models. The sprinklers I have are at least 15 years old maybe more. His has more flourishes. I made these fast to print and still work well. Reuse the stock spring. Print it upside down without supports. I added a ramp to one side on the pivot pin. On the older pattern master there are two sets of pins on the sides of the sprinkler. You need to cut off the rearward ones before installing the hood. Once you remove those pins install the hood by put the spring in place on the hood then locate the spring on the sprinkler. Then align the pin on the side without the leg. Then simply press down to press the pin into the ramp and snap into place on the other side. If you need a replacement spring search for item# "SP-9702 spring". It's sold under a couple different brands under the same item number though. This is my first remix and my first 3d modeling of any type I've done. It's challenging but very rewarding.
