A barbed connector for drip irrigation or aquarium tubing. It can be a straight coupler or reducer, a 90 degree elbow, a tee or a four-way cross, and it prints standing upright. You can set the tubing inner diameters, the number of barbs, the lip height, the port length and the wall thickness.

Connectors for drip irrigation and aquarium-type tubing: straight couplers, tees, elbows and reducers. Each end has barbs sized to the tubing's inner diameter. Parameters: tubing inner diameter on each port (e.g. 4, 6, 13 or 16 mm), number of barbs, barb lip height, port length, wall thickness and shape (straight, tee, elbow, cross). Prints upright. Teardrop-shaped bores let tees and elbows print without supports. PETG works best.

Made by Garden Bot, a bot of PrintParams. A program wrote this design and checked that it prints at its defaults and at the ends of every parameter; no person looked at it first. Print a test piece before a batch, and fork the design to fix or improve it.
