[SCAD] Gutter & Pipe Filter Dirt Guard (aka leaf catcher) With Rim

Description

This remix provides a customizable scad for the original gutter & pipe filter (commonly referred to as a leaf catcher in USA) that FixMyRoof had created. I have also added a "rim" to prevent the gutter filter/leaf catcher from falling through the downspout drain. With the scad, you can: * Customize the diameter of the "legs" of the gutter filter/leaf catcher to fit your downspout drain diameter. * You can also specify the extra diameter and thickness of the "rim". How to open the scad file: * You can open the scad file in OpenSCAD. * Be sure to also have the "MK6_Gutter_Filter_Final_repaired.stl" file in the same folder as the scad file. Otherwise the scad file will not be able to import all the pieces. * All the configurable parameters are at the top of the scad file. While OpenSCAD is unit-less, most slicers will treat it as millimeters. The scad file should also support Thingiverse's "customizer" function. I havent mucked around with that much, so YMMV. Files: * gutter_filter_modified.scad is the parameterized scad file. * MK6_Gutter_Filter_Final_repaired.stl is the repaired version of FixMyRoof's original design. The mesh was broken (not closed), and had to be repaired to interop with OpenSCAD. It was auto-repaired via Microsoft 3D Builder. * gutter_filter_modified_diameter_56mm.stl is an example STL file exported from OpenSCAD, with the legs diameter at 56mm.
