While setting up the ATO system in Robo-Tank I needed a good way to mount the sensors into my sump. After looking around online and at the LFS nothing was exactly what I wanted so I decided to try 3D printing a mounting system. This is what I came up with:
I used white ABS as the printing material I have beed told that will be reef safe. I have never used ABS in a salt water application but so far so good. The bolts are 1/4 inch nylon from the local hardware store. Everything else is printed. I did brush each part with acetone to help make it more water proof.
It will not let me include the stl files on the form but if anyone would like them pm me with your email address and I'll send them to you.
