These two fittings thread together to form a tarp leak diverter.
This allows one to take a tarp, hang it below a ceiling leak, and put a small hole in the low point, silicone this fitting through the hole, tighten the nut, and attach a standard garden hose to direct the water into a barrel or drain.
I used this to keep rain from saturating the earth of a foundation excavation.
There are two parts: a threaded component that passes through the top of the tarp, and a nut that threads onto it, leaving enough thread to attach a garden hose.
I made this because the only other 3D-printable tarp-leak-diverter I found online used a plumbing fitting thread instead of a garden hose thread.
This isn't a remix; it's a hack I needed that day. It works. Please, someone, remix these parts.
Attached are pictures taken from the top and bottom of this diverter in use.
