My second project with Fusion 360. A self-irrigating pot with water level indicator.
All you need is a wick to suck the water upwards and a piece of styrofoam to "boost" the indicator.
I haven't printed it yet. Once I have tested it, I may adjust it again.
Since I print with SLA, both parts have a ventilation hole to reduce the negative pressure when printing. This can be closed with the nozzle after printing.
For FDM printers, I also uploaded the bottom part without nozzles. However, you have to seal the inside to make it waterproof.
