This is a replacement for an old Laghetto skimmer.
\nMy swimming pool is an old Laghetto branded one, almost 40 years!
\n2 years ago the top piece of the skimmer (the part that makes it float) broke and I fixed it with glue but it didn't hold long...
\nDue to high price of new skimmers I ended up printing a new top piece to make it float again.
\nIt is divided into two parts with a thread to connect then. The inside is empty and has to be filled with some sort of foam, bubble wrap may be ok (I used styrofoam).

Here you can find a video demonstration: https://youtu.be/_bi0kBtoUSw

After around 3 months of use it is working really well.

I printed both parts with .3 layer height and PLA.
