After a few requests with members I sat down and took the time to design and print a tank boot so I can set my tank vertically! Without the large cutouts it would of taken over 24 hours of print time and used 50% more plastic.
3D Printed Carbon Tank Boot
- Thread starter cj_86
- Start date
Care to share the .stl file?
If it was mine I would add 3 or 4 "outrigger" triangles to further limit the tipover possibilities.
Good job overall

Nice. I haven't researched everywhere, but haven't found a satisfactory one for my 18 cf, 4.25" diameter Omega tank from AOA. I've only run across solutions for the bigger tanks. If you're selling, I'm interested.
Also, it looks like you mounted some kind of clip on the tank? What's that about? Looks handy.

I can sell them and if your interested just send me a PM. I will need 2 dimensions of your tank for it to fit properly and because it’s hard plastic making it a friction fit will be difficult. To attach the boot I just put a couple blobs of hot glue.
The clip is also 3D printed and those I can print too. I would send a clip for 5/8” diameter round(diameter of average QD foster fitting) and a 3/8” diameter (average diameter a non-microbore hose).
I am traveling for work right now so I apologize if I don’t get to your messages until this weekend.
