Needed to try connecting a washing machine to a water canister for use without running water, although this form of a tube adapter is probably useful for many other
...显示更多 situations. The sizes I used are for very specific combination, but decided to make it customizable for same effort.
The larger base of the adapter is threaded on the inside, the thin pipe at the top is threaded on the outside. The thin pipe continues through the part to the ground, serving as both printing support and positioning a rubber ring if needed.
It printed well for me in 0.1mm ABS without support, tried to print it solid with concentric paths, but I think Slic3r didn't make it wholly solid. The plastic doesn't seem to leak, but the threads on the water canister do leak, even with the rubber piece, so my thread parameters might be slightly off.
As for the washing machine, the water pressure doesn't seem to be high enough, so it's back to the drawing board for me...
