If you like the model a boost would be appreciated!

I have a few other VP Racing models and somebody asked for this one.

Bend Keeper for VP Racing Gas Can Tubes. Notice the name says “KEEPER”. If you try to print this out of PLA and stick it on a 4 year old tube of automotive/gasoline resistant grade plastic tubing, expect it to BREAK. It will absolutely work on that 4 year old tubing, but you need to soften it first with hot water or direct sunlight, then put the keeper on there and it will keep the shape.

If the tube is newer, it will most likely be fine without softening (still a good idea), particularly if you print it out of something stronger like PETG, ASA, etc.

do you have a print for the hose adapter that screws into the big cap?

I looked but dont see it. its the fitting that screws into the center of big cap the a fill hose clamps on to. so like a thread back to barb fitting.

It was a great design, but it kinked my hose on my VP racing can. maybe I will trying making slightly bigger.

@user_3961430561

did that work for you? I had the same issue

@user_3959899746

Replying to @user_3961430561 :

I didn't try it, I actually just bought a automatic pump from Amazon. I don't even have to pick my can up anymore 😆

In order to get this to work well with ABS I had to scale it up a touch, and change the orientation of the model on the build plate. Happy to upload the file should you choose to allow remixing. For those with old hoses. Soften them with hot water (or sunlight) in order to get them to flex.
