Looking for someone to make a 3d printed dosing outlet holder. Attach are photos. I found what I believe to be the files and I just need someone who has a printer to do it.

I forgot to mention that I wanted to use this for an ATO since I just have a AIO nano tank

let me know thanks

@gregzz4 If it doesnt cost a bunch of money, you want to pay for the shipping above and beyond my normal shipping or you make a large enough order I can probably help. I am sure you will be able to find someone in Canada that can help you though :) Shoot me a PM with your address or someplace in town and I can quote you what you would be looking at for shipping.

EDIT: Looks like it would cost right around $25 for shipping for a pound of stuff. Seems like a lot, but if you need it let me know)

Thanks Dierks for the offer. I'll keep you in mind and appreciate it.
If I can't find someone to print this I'll let you know.
Makes sense for me to find someone closer as shipping is definitely a financial barrier.

I can purchase the original holders produced by EcoTech but @ $20 each Canadian it's ludicrous.
To purchase 3, 4 or 5 singles, or a couple of doubles and a single or 2 of the linked projects from someone making them through 3D could be feasible if the price is right.

@gregzz4 Looks like i can do the 5 Singles for $35 (USD) then the shipping of course whatever that would end up being. Just so you have a starting point to compare to.

I'm ideally looking for 2 doubles and 2 singles.
Regardless, the shipping from the US, plus the 35% exchange, is what's holding me back.

Thanks again for your efforts/offers.
Not looking to spend big money on something that's only a 'wish list' item :)

And I'll state this for all;
It seriously sucks balls for those of us in Canada to purchase items from the US - especially when many of the items aren't even produced in the States to start with !!!
When I started reefing back in 2010-2011 our dollars were at par.
Now I need to add 35% to anything I want that you guys can get shipped mostly free, AND I have to add shipping/duty etc costs.

Sucks to be Canadian

It looks like I could get those delivered to you for $25 USD, including shipping :). Slow shipping, but it'll get there LOL.

this style (bottom left)- with the duals printed as one piece.

@TheHarold looking at the picture in post #15 those oval shaped hole grommets that would fit Marine Depot Controller Boards should be in high demand. Just in case you don't know about them I'll post a link and I'll tell you I've seen a lot of these boards in various build threads here on this forum. https://www.marinedepot.com/standard-aquarium-controller-board-mounting-system-marine-depot Someone could probably clean up with a lot of business 3D printing oval grommets for these boards in Apex orange or other colors. I'm interested and would probably buy several myself!! Let me know if you would do these, what you would charge per grommet, and shipping to zip 59923.

Hey that’s a really interesting idea. Normally grommets are used to smooth out rough cut holes, but the aesthetics might still be nice. I’ll look into getting the dimensions. I’m friends with the guy that makes those!
