Water Falls in the mountains - Version 2 - I designed this over time, to have a nice portable water fall that was pleasing to look at. Its all self contained. The pump can be inside or use with another mini pump with a tube externally if you would like. This is also a single print with minimal support designed for ease of use. If the pump pressure is set right, it is designed to have three separate falls, The upper, overflow from secondary above the trees then to the right into the pond.
I used grey PLA from Inland, and it worked great. So with a $1.30 pump off ebay and a piece of tube, with the cost of PLA it was under $5.

UPDATE 6-3-18
I've uploaded version 19 which has improved water path and smaller fountain nozel for smaller pump tubes. once version 19 is approved, I'll delete version 17b.
Set support as light as possible, I also keep about .8mm distance from xy and about .6mm from z. I used a nozzle temp of 205C and bed at typical 60c. I use hairspray on glass.. because everything else I tried somewhat worked or was messy and I've just had great luck with it. This project used about 200 grams of PLA at about 70 meters.
