Summary

It is the update to my T-Adapter for 6mm or 8mm water hose.
It supports 3 in or out takes which you can choose the hose diameter diameter yourself.
The example shows two 8mm and one 6mm connector.

Important to know.
It is almost impossible to print items that are really watertight. It must be expected that a few drops get lost. Luckily the extreme small holes get closed by itself over the time. Maybe by dirt in the water or whatever. Se the picture.

I grind the insert adapters a bit to flatten the surface on the sides for more precise fit.

To get it quite OK, you may increase the shell thickness in the slicer. I did from 2 to 4 layers.
