Bubbleponic Feeder Manifold (alpha)

Alpha version of a bubbleponic feeder for a top-feeding deep water culture hydroponic system.

This project will be evolving over time. Current iteration fits a 6" net cup.

Changes from v1 to v2:

• Eliminated net pot mounting ring to reduce amount of material and make adjusting the height of the manifold easier.
• Changed the inlet port from a straight fitting (~6mm) to what is approaching standard MIP 1/2" barbed fitting. I still need to enlarge this a little bit, but 1/2" flexible PVC tubing should work fine with a small hose clamp.
• Tested with a 550GPH pump.

Todo:

• A height-adjustable mounting solution.
• Enlarge the barbed fitting to fit more snug with tubing.

Future ideas:

• Make a parametric version to be able to build different size and inlet variations of this model.
