I have this blow up mattress that needs to be inflated every so often when I have guests over... thing is, I don't have a very good air pump to accompany it. But, I DO have a nice hair dryer with a 'cold' setting (H&D model number HD-1205). Its nozzle opening is 25mmx50mm whereas the blow up mattress opening is round... SO, I made this adapter. Works beautifully and I can skimp out on buying a real air pump. Yay!
Now, that's what I call living the 3D print lifestyle.... aww-yeah!
February 5th, 2016 update - added a version 2 with a special little pimple that allows it to snap on to the end of the hair dryer (instead of resorting to ghetto-ing it up with tape like I did in the pictures above).
Does this bring us one step closer to world peace?
Yes. Yes it does.
I design stuff like this all the time, so feel free to peruse my other publications - who knows what you'll find you can't live without:
