Long story, not so short. I have a resin printer, and I use IPA to wash my parts before curing. After a while, the IPA accumulates a decent amount of uncured resin (ewe). I found this video where they use Aluminum Sulfate to coagulate the resin in short order. This is great, but you have to carefully pour the IPA (which is highly flammable and caustic) from the cleaning tank to another container. I figured I could use a peristaltic pump to draw the IPA off the top.
In the end I needed a case for the pump, so here it is. I had to remove the pump section to assemble this. I have tested it and it works great! I will list parts and links below.
