Simple one-way valve, no moving parts (Tesla valve)

Description

A Tesla Valve is a tube with no moving parts that restricts the flow of fluids in one of two directions. For example: Blowing into one end of the build will be easy, while an enormous amount of force is required when blowing from the other end. Print it and see for yourself! No supports, rafts, or filament changes required. Prints as-is on almost any printer. *Note:* This build is in two halves; to complete the valve, one half must be painted with glue on the channel side (don't get glue in the channels) and flipped over on top of the other side. **MAKE SURE** the channels on the two halves line up **BEFORE** gluing them together. If you enjoyed the build or thought it was cool, don't forget to like it and post a make! Also, design feedback is greatly appreciated Thanks!
