Description
Most y-splitters are designed to be printed upright standing. This one is designed to be printed laying flat on the printbed. To avoid sagging ceiling layers the path is designed as teardrop profile. The angle of the teardrop is dependant on layer height. Smaller layer heights allows shallower overhang angles. The scad is parametrizable.
All transitions between Materials are made to first widen and afterwards reduce the diameter again.
