3d printed autosyphon for aquaponics

An attempt at creating an autosyphon for aquaponics that works with a wider range of input/ output flows than bell syphons (for small systems)

It also it is close to 100% 3d printed , as you only need a bit of fishing line, so cheap and reproducible :)

Bad news is: my aquaponics is too small to tweak and test it reliably (balance between counterweight "bucket" and valve side is tricky), so  I am shelving it for now, but will likely try a bigger version next summer.

Cad files for printing are open source and available here: (files with "custom syphon" in them, not bell syphon)
