Description

The top of my rain barrel has a standard male garden hose fitting on the top. This screws on to that male fitting, filtering out debris that may otherwise enter your rain barrel. The filter/strainer has a reusable, easy-to-clean basket. When your water stops flowing, just clean out the basket.

Printing/assembly notes: Print in PETG for sunlight tolerance. Supports recommended for all three pieces (tree, touching build plate). The cap fits somewhat loosely, you may choose to use a piece of weatherproof tape to hold it in place. It should work just fine without it. I'll eventually update this to be more snug of a fit. Also, in this v1 design, the top hose mount is a bit too flexible, don't put too much pressure on it or it'll snap off. I'll reinforce in later models.
