The Weather Station Connector is a 3D printed spare part designed to replace a damaged or missing connector on a weather station. The connector is 3D printed using ABS plastic filament, chosen for its strength and durability in an outdoor-use component that may be exposed to weather conditions over time.

About the manuals
Field Ready develops manuals to support both the fabrication and safe use of its products. A maker manual provides step-by-step instructions for replicating the design, including materials, tools, and assembly guidance, so that makers in different locations can build the product accurately and consistently. A user manual, where applicable, explains how to properly set up, use, and maintain the product once it is built, helping ensure it performs safely and as intended for the end user. Together, these manuals make the design accessible to both fabricators and the people who ultimately rely on the product.
