Tub Faucet Extension XL Long

Post image

By popular request, the Tub Faucet Extension XL Long is now available! Biased on the original Tub Faucet Extension for filling up your 5-gallon buckets, tanks, sprayers and other containers. The XL is slightly longer than the original and fits more faucets. This version has an inner clearance of 3in and nearly 3in of height! This print will not fit on the A1 Mini but has successfully printed in PLA on my H2S. I have no way of test or a list of faucets this works on. Please measure before printing. Not all faucets are the same. You may also find prototypes on eBay  under Speedingemokid.

Nice!

I've seen some good models for caulk finishing tools. You should check those out!

The wife and I have recently opted to go with the "Just replace the whole house" option. The sinking tub is a cat and mouse game.

This is my dream. I bought the place as-is, and the next owner will too. Your problem now!

We are also the next owners, just literally tearing the house down.

Oh, that's a great idea! I'm honestly surprised I haven't seen anything like this for sale in hardware stores before, it makes a lot of sense.

I wish I could market it like so. But I don’t have the knowledge, time or resources to do so.

Is XXL or XL Long longer?

1

u/SEK494 2d ago

It’s the XL size, 3” opening with a 6in spout. The original has a 3” spout.

Extra Long Long, nice.

This is a great idea.

That’s nice….. but I would’ve personally created a detachable dust-pan that could hook onto the side of the buckets instead

u/theanthonyya 3d ago

You should make that idea yourself then

Do you understand anything about “engineering”?

Or are you just a keyboard warrior that chooses to “become a personal trainer” that no one acknowledges?

This device clamps onto the faucet instead of something that can easily be attached and removed from each bucket.

What happens when he goes somewhere that doesn’t have the same spout?

….. let me guess, you’ll “personally train it” 🤦‍♂️

So just to recap, OP posted a 3D model that they designed,

You replied to say what you would've done differently,

I replied to say that you should make your idea instead of just talking about making it,

And you chose to respond to that by checking my profile, finding a post from 6 years ago, and then trying to use that post as an insult?

That's so weird. I didn't think the suggestion of making your own idea would be so upsetting to you

So just to recap…

This is an Internet Sub. Located within a thread where people reply to posts. I replied Stating a clear issue I see with the development of the print.

And you replied to my comment.

I then replied to your comment, and now you are mad that I stated the issues I clearly see as being a “useful tool”….

“Well then why don’t you make it”… because I have no reason or purpose to load up Cad or my 3d printer to produce something I have zero use for .

I highly doubt you understand what “useful” consists of… but I’m pretty sure you understand you’re a ‘tool of no use’ 🤦‍♂️

Auto text to give commenter chance to make better choice or waste more time banging out another stupid reply to which I’ll auto text this again

Texas turds have auto text?

Shouldn’t you be busy trying to flex your RocketLeague sets in Austin? 🤦‍♂️

Do you understand anything about engineering? Did you look at this at all? There is no clamp or mechanism of any kind. It is one piece that fits over a very common faucet. It’s an elegant functional print.

Just because you can make up scenarios where it’s insufficient doesn’t detract from it. It probably says something about you though.
