3D model description

3D Print your own hydroponic / Aeroponic tower!

Print any of my tower designs ranging from 12 plant towers without lights to 32 plant towers with lights and support system, and everything in between.
You can grow full-sized vegetables on this tower, not just herbs and lettuce. This tower is engineered for strength and functionality!

I spent months prototyping, designing, testing, and adjusting, so you don't have to!

Customize your tower to meet your needs with 3, 4, or 5, plant tower modules, lights, water level indicator, extensions, and support system.

Some features:
- 2 strong reservoir lid styles (5-gallon bucket and 14.5 Liter pot)
- 3, 4, and 5 plant tower modules included.
- Integrated plant support system for 3 and 4 plant modules
- Holes in the reservoir lid with caps. (one for the pump power cord, one to check nutrients, add water, etc.)
- Integrated name plates below each plant
- Plant hooks on each module to help tie-down large plants
- Lights for the holders are readily available on Amazon
- Lid fits a standard 11.8" 5-gallon bucket.
- No need to print net cups! My design uses both wide-rim and original 2" netcups.

New Update:
Our Lid now also accepts the cup modules designed by "BoundryCondition".

included:
- 3,4,5 Cup tower modules
- Strong & Functional Lid for 5 gallon bucket & 14.5 liter pot.
- Water Level Indicator
- 2 caps for the lid - (one with a hole for the pump power cord, the other closed)
- Plant support system
- Water distributor
- Open caps - These hold the original 2" netcups in place. (Can also use wide rim netcups in this system)
- Closed caps (to close a hole when not in use)
- Half-open caps (Helps prevent light getting in the system)
- Light arms
- 2", 3". 4" & 6" extension pieces

This digital download includes:
- High-quality STLs to print your own tower
- Printing Instructions
- Additional parts list (bolts, water pump, bucket etc)

This download allows you to print any of my towers for personal use only.

This is offered under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International license. What does this mean?
- No sales of physical prints or derivatives
- No uploading or file-sharing of the original STL or any derivatives of it
- Personal use only, commercial use is not allowed

Print bed size requirements:
For 99% of the pieces, a print bed size of 220 x 220 x 250 (Ender 3) will be sufficient. The only piece that requires a larger print bed is the plant support piece for the 3 plant cup module specifically. Everything else will work with the above-stated size.
The 3 plant support piece can be printed on a Bambu P1P bed size and similar. (250 x 250)

Please contact me if you're interested in a commercial license.
You can see my tower in action on my TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@aeroponic_adventure

Please reach out if you have any questions.

Printing instructions and parts list included in the download.
Optimized to print without supports but we do suggest using supports on a few pieces for best results.
