Added image for the PETG printed basket. That's been in the water now for 1 1/2 months now and still looks good. No sign of any deterioration. The basket floor didn't print all that well, but a bit of cleanup had it working OK and was able to glue it to the base of the basket. The basket printed with a fair bit of stringing, so I haven't got the settings quite right yet.
I never bothered at all in the end with the lift ring.

Added some updated files (066P xxx)
Improved and stronger Lid (Basket Cover)
Improved and stronger Basket (basket wo base)
Slight strengthening of floor (skimmer basket floor)
I am currently printing the three up in PETG by Polymaker (Polylite PETG)
As this is the first time I've used PETG the settings are a bit of guess work. But:
Initial layer Temp 240C, Main layers 235C, Initial Speed 10m/s, normal 40m/s Bed @ 80C.
I will post up the results once completed.
Using PLA the Prints last a couple of months before they break
