I needed a chlorinator for use with 3" tablets, but Tixhyl's version is designed for the smaller (1"?) tablets. I liked the design, though, so... why reinvent the wheel? Simply rescaling the existing model wouldn't work, though, because that would have changed the size and shape of the holes. So... I loaded Sketchup and redrew the design from scratch, with the adjusted dimensions. Not being satisfied with that, though, I thought this needed a lid, and nothing looks better floating in the pool than a rubber duck. Unfortunately, I am not too good at organic modeling yet, so I borrowed 3DprinterOS's totally awesome Tourist Duck. I did the merge for this in Blender, just because blender imports, and works with, existing STLs a lot easier than does Sketchup. After printing, I painted the colored portions of the duck with Plaid Folk Art Multi-Surface acrylic paints.   ---Another Sketchup Model - Debunking the Myth that Sketchup is Useless in 3D Printing

In case anyone is curious as to why there is a hot pepper embossed into most of my designs... My nickname is Pepper and that little pepper logo is a hell of a lot shorter than "Copyright © 2017 by Derek J.G.
