Who has a 3D printer...?

[Anihiel1]

Who has a 3D printer and would be willing to print me some adorably small toilet brushes with holders for my various sizes of protein skimmer? Would really love to hand that to my spouse next time they need cleaning . I have a couple of Bullet nanos and a Reef Ocotopus 1000. Will gladly venmo you.

In the uk, I can probably send some out

I'm in the US, would shipping be an issue?

I'm sure shipping would be cost prohibitive. There are a bunch of folks here in the states with printers. I don't have one myself but maybe post in the DIY forum if no one responds here.

Where in US you at? You have the files?

Nvm see the NJRC so im assuming NJ? lol

@tbrown has a printer, maybe he could help?

There's a section in the R2R marketplace where people sell 3D printed items, I'm sure one of those sellers would be able to help:

3D Printed & Handmade Aquarium Items

www.reef2reef.com

Additionally, there are people on Etsy that will print whatever you need, as long as you have the files.

Good luck!

Yeah, I think you may have better luck having them printed. I am in Texas and will be happy to print them for you but I'd really not like to deal with shipping. That is a time consuming activity here where I am but if you must, would do them for you.

Honestly, it's almost worth it to buy a printer now a days... I've printed so much stuff for my tank it's insane.. Also make things for work and obviously it gets used more by making things my daughter wants.. Look into the Bambu Labs A1.. Prolly find a used one decent price as well..

Thank you all!! Didn't even think of Etsy, that is a great idea! I will check there

I agree that you can get a 3d printer relatively cheap these days. Look into a Bambu A1 or A1 mini, perfect printers if you want to get into it.

Oh yeah its super expensive to ship to U.S fron UK for some reason, sorry mate. As someone said, printers are affordable these days and some really are plug'n'play so maybe worth taking the plunge. Super useful for aquariums

I may have to invest in one, looked at Etsy and they are all doll- house size.

Check out your local library, there’s a good chance they have 3D printers you can use

That is an awesome idea!! And actually found a baby-bottle brush that I can bend to look like a toilet brush. Just need to make a toilet-brush stand then the vision is complete LOL
