Plumbing Tools
This week’s contest taps into the practical side of 3D printing: plumbing. Whether it’s a handy faucet adapter, or a tool for perfectly cutting pipes, we’re looking for designs that turn everyday plumbing challenges into manageable tasks. Think about tools or parts that make plumbing repairs or installations easier—maybe an organizer for pipes, a connector that solves an annoying compatibility issue, or a practical upgrade for existing fixtures. Designs that are functional, inventive are what we are looking for in this challenge. Just make sure your designs are well-suited for their intended purpose and safe to use.
