Hi Ladys and Gentleman,
this tool is for home-gardeners like me.. just needed something quick and dirty to raise my flowerpot inlets and provide that the plants will get water over a short Time Periode from above one week or more.
For bigger plants i have had some gardener watering sticks out of clay, but not enough for all plants.. also you need space for the water reservoir. So i designed this “Plant-sucker-sticks”..
1Part the Stick and one Part an Ring for holding the Rope/ Cordell in place.
With a Rope/ Cordell the Plant will be able to "suck water from the base of the flowering Pot.
Printing:
For 1 assembled Stick u need to print 1x Part1 and 1x Part2.
Recommend to Print it from ASA, PETG or for shortterm use (like i needed it.. ;) just go with PLA. (But be aware that PLA will not least lot of Weeks or months i think.)
Place the Stick onto the printing bed with the horizontal “bridge-side”.
It´s easier to print, maybe i will change the files for one flat side in the future - if its needed.
Assembly Tipps:
Its designed to click in Place on variable heights. just get yourself some Rope that will have a good water absorption effect - i took some Cotton rope for this - maybe some old shoelaces should work also ;)
