So as some of you may know, there was a week where all of the wyes I shipped out to people broke. I will be shipping out replacements in the next few days, and I thank you all for your patience.
After the breakages, I went back and made some major design changes.
They will be for sale later this month and the price is now $6.50 as it now requires more plastic to print. (details below)

These are the latest I have printed, and they feature:
1. Thicker walls than the original design.
2. End-stops in all three of the 1/2" pvc coupler areas.
3. The URL to my webstore imbedded into the side.
Also if you orient two wyes like in the picture and plug the hole in the top one, you get a chopper.

Plans for distribution:
The Wye design will be available for download in the 3D designs directory:

I will also be selling them for $6.50 on my webstore later this month. (I will update this thread when I am actually ready to sell. And probably start a sales thread)

I have also talked to some people about having a distributer network. Basic concept is that for every area of the country where there is interest, I will have someone who essentially takes orders, and then sends the order to me, and I ship them a crate of wyes and the other stuff I am planning on making. Then they distribute them to the people in their area who ordered them. The potential benefit of this would be a bulk discount as I would be saving a lot on shipping to one person as opposed to say 20.
Also my next project that I was going to work on was my hot glue dome moulds, but if you guys have something that you think would be beneficial to the community for me to make leave a reply.
Thank you guys so much for your feedback, and criticism over the design process. I really appreciate it.
