Can you share the STL? I would be interested in this.
Do you have any problems with water leaking? People always warn about prints not being water tight, but I don't know if that's old advice or not.
as soon as i fix a few small problems i'll share it here :D
the two red ones are painted with red car paint and a clearcoat, they are totally water tight, a black and a pink one are only coated with clearcoat, they don't leak as well, but i tested them before coating and both dripped a bit at the joints.. i'm correcting some parts now and will use more glue.. i think that'll fix it but i'd still recommend to use" ironing" in your slicer and clearcoating it after assembly.. i didn't let the water in the can for multiple hours, so i'm not sure yet whether water will penetrate through the plastic..
