Spinning Water Filter
Design water filters that are simple and convenient to use while maintaining high filtration quality. These filters should require minimal effort, using only water, the filter, and your hands. By incorporating reliable and efficient filtration methods, they ensure clean water without the need for complex setups or additional equipment.

CAD the Bottom Nozzle
Create a New Internal Component.
Start a New Sketch on the Front Plane and sketch the vertical cross section of the component.
Revolve the sketch around the the Y axis, and add a thread to the inner circular surface.
This part is now complete, so activate the Root component.

CAD the Middle Piece
Create a New Internal Component.
Project the topmost circle from the Bottom Nozzle.
Start a Sketch on the Bottom Nozzle's face with the projected circle, and trace the same circle.
Sketch a slightly bigger circle with the same center, and extrude the overlapped spaced in between, forming a shape that looks like a hollowed-out cylinder.
Start a new Sketch on the topmost face of the cylinder and draw a bigger circle than the previously drawn circles, and sketch an even bigger circle on the same plane with the same center.
Extrude the overlapped cylinder space.
Add threads to the inner surface of the bigger cylinder and the outer surface of the smaller cylinder.
This part is now complete, so activate the Root component.
