Adaptation part to connect hoses of different diameters. I made it to plug a vacuum on a miter saw.
It is customizable and made of three sections: inlet, outlet and pipe (which is the area between inlet and outlet).
Each section has its own length and inner and outer diameters. The transition between sections can be adjusted in length as well. This allows to make the connecting end male or female connections.
Should be printed standing obviously. On which end depends on the slopes of the transitions (adjusted by their lengths).
I printed it in PLA, but in retrospect TPU might be interesting to test, at least for female connectors, as it would give more freedom of movement, and I suspect also better sealing. Let me know if you try it!
