I had to connect my hose to my Quooker tap to fill my aquarium with fresh water.

Unfortunately I could not find an Gardena adapter for my Quooker tap and used a so called 'waterthief' that you can push over the tap end. This is not so convenient so I decided to create it myself based on another Gardena model posted by Hondzik here.
It took me a while and multiple adjustments to create this. This is my latest version and with this it is solid and working almost perfect. If anyone can help me make this design better, please do and let me know, I have included the Fusion 360 file I used.
USAGE
When I had to first screw it on I noticed I had to kind of ‘tap’ the threading the first time, by applying a little force while screwing. I assume it is because of the fact that the print precision wasn't enough. But after that I could easily add the adapter with ease and I did not see any damage to the threading whatsoever.
Also the rubber ring inside - that seals the threading from water flowing out - should be identical to the original Quooker ring. I have tried to use the Gardena ring but it is too big and causes blockage of the water flow because the flow of water comes out at the side of the tap and not from the middle. However I tried it without any seal ring and the flow of water out of the threading is limited and acceptable if you ask me. But this is without having any pressure on the hose!
UPDATE
I updated the model so all Gardena hoses should fit now.
