My take on a 3D printable floating portal.
I found similar models around, but simply did not see a hexagon. Hexagon = Bestagon so I just wanted to make one that worked for my needs.
I noticed that in my testing of the model that it floating easily and sits close to flush with the surface. I have noticed that some of my bigger Ramshorn snails can even hang on top of the portal, semi submerging it, but not being able to sink it [so far ahaha].
Would appreciate feedback for how it works for others
Model:
- Floating Hex 50mm
- As per the file name, 50mm opening through the portal
- Model wall thickness: 0.4mm
Material:
- I use PLA+. Feel free not to use PLA+ and carry out your own personal research on aquarium use of PLA/PLA+/PETG.
Print Settings:
- Tested using 0.3mm layer height and no infill - easy print
- Nozzle used was a standard 0.4mm
NOT tested at other nozzle sizes, I would expect some issues to occur - may depend on how your slicer would handle
I was inspired by (but not remixes of) models such as:
