mostly "private" notes for now...
3D Printing
- snap-fit ring to hold the mesh
- low-poly circle in Tinkercad may actually be beneficial for this purpose - bit more room for error?
- designed to be about right (ID = tube OD + 1 mm), but final fitting had to be tried with small adjustments in Slic3r (P4/P5: 100.4 % scale)
- 20 % infill, 0.3 mm layers
