I saw the media basket for chamber 1 on Amazon but I am not too impressed with it based on the reviews due to not having a perfit fit, too tall, etc...

So I am now looking for someone with 3D printing skill that was able to print out a better media basket for the chamber 1 for the Evo 13.5.

Please post here or PM me your creation and how much it would cost to make one. Thank you.

I saw TrevN64 had made a basket. Maybe worth reaching out to them about making you one? It wasn't 3d Printed, but was acrylic. Unless you could provide exact measurements with mm's, it would be hard to get you a good fitting basket without having a 13.5 to R&D with.
If you come up with the dimensions (by buying a digital caliper for 10bucks off amazon) let me know and I could help printing something up.

I have a chamber one that I printed for my evo 13.5 and have been using it for the past 2months. I just dont have enough filament left to print out one for you. I can send you the file if you want. it fits in super tight and stays in place by friction

Hello. That looks like a great 3D print. Can you please send me the file? My email is [email protected]

Thank you very much.

Oh, what type of filament do you use to be reef safe?
