I am looking for 3D printed screen top pieces to make a custom top for my 10 gallon QT. I have used aluminum frame and 3D printed corners in the past but I need to make some cutouts for a Seachem Tidal 35 filter and cords. Any links to available files would be greatly appreciated. I’m looking to get my QT going in time for Black Friday fish shopping and I do not want to use an egg-crate top with zip tied screen again. Thanks for helping.

Have you considered creating the necessary pieces yourself? I have designed a little over 40 custom pieces for my own tank and almost exclusively do it on tinkercad.com which is both free and intuitive to use. All you need is basic measurements of what you want and an idea in your head of what it needs to look like. You can knock it out quickly, get exactly what you want, and get to printing.

That is the next plan. I don’t have a printer yet but I’m most likely going to have to design myself. I’ll check out Tinkercad.

We often use Blender or TinkerCAD (for simple parts). If you need something printed quickly, let me know. Themakerlab.net wll provide rapid turnaround.

You may also find what you are looking for already exists on thingiverse, cults3d, or Thangs.

Fewer results but other places that have models are makerworld and printables.
