Drip Tray

Paul Tsigakis published a 3D printable design for a drip tray. As he noted on Thingiverse,

After spilling a lot of water everywhere, I made this is a drip tray made for the Tormek T8, so that the spilled water can be retuned to the tank.

Extra useful for those who use expensive water for the diamond wheels.


Notes on Making One

You can access the file for 3D printing at Thingiverse.com. The web link is :

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4791736.

Note: It takes a while to print. On my Ender 3V2, it took about 29 hrs.

This (and other useful jigs) is also a available at MakerWorld.com/. The web link is :

Urban Ringström noted that there is an updated design of the Drip Tray for use with an FVB. The design of this tray is also useful if you are using the universal support bar from the horizontal position. Either way, you probably should also print this 2nd drip tray. I find the drip tray to be a very useful add-on, and encourage it's use.
