Does anyone print bulkhead strainers? I’m looking to get some. Not sure if this is the correct forum to post this.
Not exactly sure what you are looking for but if you send me a photo I could take a look at making one up for you.

DM me your address, and I will send them to you to see if they work for you. I recreated the whole thing and added a lip so you could not insert it too far. Also, let me know if you would like another color. I just kind of assumed you would want black. :)

Thanks, Chris

Just curious, why don't you want to purchase bulkhead strainers already available? What's the benefit of 3d printing them? I've never liked the look of 3d printed stuff, rough surface, not as clean looking IMO

It's on me, at no charge. I am printing up the other 13 now and will send them out when they are done. I will let you know when they ship with a tracking number. I hope they work for you.

Sorry took me a while to respond. I have been pretty busy working on 3D design and printing projects. What are the dimensions? If you can get me that, I can come up with something.
