This is a strainer/filter for a sink. Diameter of the drain should be about 30mm, but I guess it could work for larger diameters if scaled up.
I figured that if the strainer was made into a hemisphere that it should be able to capture more volume of water than its 2D counterparts. I added sort of a cup/funnel at the top to catch and or divert water.
I found that the pressure of the water on the cup, would make the strainer fall onto its side. I added legs so that it is more stable. Just apply a thin layer of crazy glue to the insert or the inside of the strainer and adjust the length of the legs to what makes sense for the drain of your sink.
I usually have to scale by 10 all my drawings when they go into my slicer. It maybe because I draw them in mm and slicers may expect cm.
