I had a broken faucet retainer that kept leaking. So of course 3d printing to the rescue! it saved me $50 in the end, considering you cannot buy just the piece that was cracked. You'd have to buy the entire handle ($50) or replace the faucet all together for $200+.

All in, cost $0.44 supports and all. The faucet doesn't leak anymore, and the wife finally appreciates this fine 3d printing hobby.

This currently installed in my bath faucet and works great. its a little tighter maybe because I didn't calibrate the filament flow. However there is very little backlash with the faucet.

Made with Fusion360

Print instructions

7 Perimeters
50% infill
supports on buildplate only activated.
5 raft layers when angling edge on the buildplate.
PLA is fine. PETG Better.
Angle 115° from the post downwards, to gain better layer strength. so that the screw wont pop the layers from the rest of the body.
