Parametric sprinkle nozzle for watering can

thingiverse

If you've misplaced or damaged the sprinkle nozzle for your watering can, or want a different spray pattern, don't worry, there's an easy solution. The holes are drilled at an angle, which helps create a nice even spray pattern. The standard neck diameter is 25mm, slightly coned in shape, but you can easily adjust this to suit your needs. To customize the main cone's shape, use the parameters cone_dia (cone diameter, assuming no bevel) and cone_len (cone length, or height if desired). You also have control over cone_bevel, which determines the size of the beveled part along the circumference. Just be sure not to make the cone_len too small compared to cone_dia, or you may encounter problems building the resulting flat angle properly. The wall thickness is controlled by the parameter wall, and a thinner wall means a shorter print time. However, don't make it too thin, as this can result in a flimsy product. To adjust the spray pattern, use the parameters nozzle_dia (size of each opening) and nozzle_dist (distance between openings). By reducing these values, you can achieve a softer spray.
