Devlog 5 Hydro Garden - Water Spreader and the Lids

what i did

• built the water spreader and both lids so the top of the tower is done
• spreader is a 45 degree band, 140mm outside 90mm inside, on 3 legs that come out of the collar around the pipe
• it helps distrubute the water to each level equally

i miscalculated the water pressure

• i orginally calculated that the water would flow 30mm from the top of the pipe, but it was actually just 4.5mm on MAX flow and like 0.5mm on LOW flow (i mixed up one of the variables)
• made the lid catch the water in a bowl thingy and split it into 4 holes (basically like the gutter in each module)

top lid

• my first design didnt have a top cover on the lid, now it does
• added overflow holes incase something goes wrong

whats next

• building the drain base
