This is my first designed model. A manual Jiggle Syphon valve for liquids transfer. The main purpose is to use it to transfer fuel from a container to my bike.
As I’m still waiting for my printer to arrive I didn’t test it yet and I also need to check filament resistance to the fuel.
I’m new to 3D printing and I don’t know if it is a good practice or not but you will have to do a quick pause in the middle of the printing process to insert the 16mm marble inside the model.
After printed you need to attach the valve in the end of a hose and shake it inside a container filled with any liquid to start the liquid transfer.
Once liquid reaches the oposite end of the hose you don’t need to shake it anymore as long as you keep the container higher than the place you want to transfer to.
Enjoy and please give me some feedback’s as I said before I didn’t test it yet.
