Summary

I modeled up some elbow and T joints for PVC pipes, but I didn't like having to screw the pipes into the printed parts, so I made this.

Usage:

Connector inserts friction fit into the ends of your pipes, use a tiny bit of glue if it's loose.

The pipes with inserts are then connected into elbow or T joints with a satisfying click.

Push both tabs and pull at the same time to release.

I've included a T joint that allows for a pipe to pass straight through.

Print settings:

• Supports are required, refer to screenshots. Threshold angle under 13 on the insert or it will add unnecessary supports where they can't be accessed.<\li>
• PETG
• Layer height: 0.2
• 5mm brim (optional)
• Walls: 3
• Infill: 15%

Info:

The fit might be a bit sticky at first (especially with PETG), but will loosen.

The supports on the insert can be a bit annoying to remove, but if you don't want to be bothered by that, just crack it loose and use.

I'm busy working on different joints and will include them when done (e.g. straight and 3D corner)
