Each branch of the reef structure can be created from PVC pipe and these joint elements. The lengths of pipe needed for a single reef component are:
- 23 7/8 inch (bottom)
- 9 inch (lower branch, level 2)
- 9 inch (upper branch, level 3)
- 12 ¾ inch (lower vertical section)
- 11 ¾ inch (upper vertical section)
- 6 inch (slanted section at top)
- 7 7/8 inch (highest vertical section, level 4)
Print can be any material, 2 perimeters, 15% gyroid infill. I used 6 top and bottom layers.
There are internal structures to increase strength and stiffness so more than 2 perimeters is not neccessary.
I designed these to fit two brands of PVC pipe with slightly different internal diameters. The plugs are designed to flex and provide a very tight fit that won't accidentally rotate out of alignment.
CAUTION : Inserting these can require a lot of force. Be careful not to slip and hurt yourself.
