Prier 400 (Mansfield) Valve Replacement Handle for exterior hose Spigot/Hydrant/Bib

This is a replacement handle for Prier 400 series anti-siphon wall hydrants (AKA "frost-free hose bibs"), a type of exterior hose spigot/bib/hydrant/faucet valve common in the US, and sold at various times under the Prier or Mansfield brands. This model is an alternative to the OEM replacement handle kit, part 630-7965.

This design has been optimized for 3D printing and has an extended tapered gripping surface for (arguably) improved ergonomics. It is not an exact geometric clone of the OEM handle. 

Print orientation:

• Print with the back (wall-facing) side of the handle flat on the print bed.

Suggested filament type:

• PETG or ASA, ideally with carbon fiber or glass fiber reinforcement. TPU-CF could be another good choice if you have it.

• If you're feeling fancy, you could print part of all of the handle using glow-in-the-dark (GITD) filament to make your hose valve easier to find at night.

Suggested print settings: 

• 0.2mm layer height

• 80% infill (or 60% infill, with a modifier to increase infill in the center section)

• Seam placed along inner screw hole and surface

• Vertical shells: 5

• Top/bottom layers: 5

• Scarf joint placement: everywhere

• Ironing: Yes, all top surfaces. (or skip this if you're in a hurry)

Supports:

• Organic supports suggested to support small plane below center bore.
