I didn’t want to take over the “New member introduction thread” with my questions, so I’ve started a new one.
At this point, I already have the 3D printed components. I should receive the remaining parts later this month.
One thing I was missing in the documentation was information about the material for the "polymer endplate". In the photo, “PETG 100%” was written on the endplate with a marker, so I used that material and infill.
Hi! I work at a technical university, in the mechanical engineering faculty. I'd like to build your prototype based on the documentation. Flow batteries are a new topic for me, but they could be very useful in my field, and this seems like a great way to get to know them better. I also saw your presentation on YouTube. I was about to ask about the peristaltic pump model, but I noticed you’ve just updated the documentation 
This forum looks really helpful in case I need any support or clarification. I’ll try to give some feedback if it’s useful to you.
@kirk Thank you! I'm starting to 3D print all the components.
The bottom of the endplates is perfectly flat. I sprayed the print area with Dimafix to make sure there would be no warping.
The most difficult material to print is PP due to adhesion and warping issues—I used a PP foil for that. What kind of surface did you use to print your PP components? I suspect the most common PP tape could cause leakage issues if a component is printed across the seam between two strips.
All the components are already ordered, including the MYSTAT. My department’s lab doesn’t have such a device.
Good to hear the packing tape hasn’t caused any leakage issues in your case. I ended up getting a PP adhesive foil that’s originally meant for covering book covers.
