EZ Fit Pipe Cap for 3/4" Sched 40 PVC

EZ Fit Pipe Cap for 3/4" Sched 40 PVC

Description

I think a deer kicked my faucet.... In any event, woke up this morning with a fountain in the yard from a broken 3/4" schedule 40 PVC pipe fitting. Well, shut down that water line and after cutting off the broken bit, needed a slip cap until it can be fixed properly. No better excuse to sketch up and print out my first PETG print! Using Fusion 360, it was quick work to build a simple cap, and add a few features, making it an "EZ FIT." Added a 72° chamfer at the throat to make it EZ, and sized to perfection at 27.2 mm inside diameter - giving just the right clearance to FIT snugly, and be removable. Black PETG was on hand. Not the best for photos, but will stand up best to UV. I chose to print this at .30 mm layer height for quick build. Fits perfectly! This can also be printed in PLA or ABS to suit your need. I have included the .gcode file as used for PETG on a Prusa i3 Mk3, and the .stl you can slice and dice as you like.
