Description
Designed for a standard plastic watering can - sprinkler can with a broken or missing cap.
I searched for a replacement design but couldn't find one with threads. Put together a quick prototype with Blender for the thread section. It's made for 25 mm male thread diameter on a 23 mm spout diameter (without counting the threads). Thread spacing is 4 mm. Once that printed and fit well, I added an oval top with a grid of 2 mm holes for the water. Printed great on the first try with the threaded end on the build plate and organic (tree branch) supports. The organic (tree) supports can be broken away from the inside of the cap without difficulty. The finished design worked perfectly!
