US downspout to garden hose adapter (for diversion to rain barrel, etc.)

prusaprinters

This remix allows diversion of water from a gutter downspout (common US 2in x 3in size) to a garden hose (3/4in GHT hose fitting). Great for channeling water in a different direction, to a rain collection barrel, or a garden. It maintains the overflow geometry and sheet metal screw holes of the original design. Coating the inside in polyurethane or similar is suggested to smooth the layer lines and increase durability. This prints well upright (the orientation in which it would be used—wider opening up) with supports painted on for the threads. The 3mf file attached includes the painted-on supports and basic print settings, along with a filament change so clear filament can be used for the middle diverter section where the action occurs. A clear central section makes it easy to see if leaves or other debris have built up.
