Description

This is a air powered water wheel I designed for my aquarium. Instead of using a boring bubbler.  

 

To assemble hold the wheel in the stand, and slide the pegs through the stand into the square holes in the wheel. Superglue isnt required, but I advise using it since it is a moving part that could come loose. Then simply push an airline hose onto the air inlet on the stand, and it's good to go! I designed it with a very large base so it can be weighed down with a multitude of things. Such as rocks, sand, substrate, or whatever else you may have. It is important to note that the longer its submerged under water the less buoyant it will become as water seeps in and fills up the infill of the model. 

 

If you have any questions, problems, or suggestions please feel free to ask, and i'll be happy to help! 

If like the design a boost helps me out a lot, but is never required! Thank you and happy printing!
