For another project I needed a turbine compressor. It turns out that designing turbines is like rocket scientist stuff and coaxing a 3D CAD program into modeling one is a bit tricky. So along the way I made this small prototype. It makes a cool whistle if you blow into the bottom.
Update: 1/30/18
I noticed that the latest version of Cura does not print the turbine correctly. I loaded a new one that seems to resolve the issue. If you get holes in it try changing Quality->Slicing Tolerance->Inclusive.
Also I added a new base with a garden hose fitting.
