Poor man's HVLP spray gun canister Campbell Hausfeld Husky

9/1/17 Fixed Bottle2Bottle_coupler and made it more printer friendly. 8/31/17 Because dropping $8.99 on a new canister for your recently purchased second-hand sprayer is not your style! Print this coupler and stick-it to the man. All it takes: two $1.99 water bottles and $1.00 plumber's tape. Works great. Tapered threads. Tested on a Campbell Hausfeld sprayer, but noticed identical canisters on Husky sprayers. Sprayer thread size is 5/8 Fine American Standard size (or M16 with a 1.5mm pitch). Instructions: Step 1. Find 2 water bottles with a 27mm thread diameter. Think: Aquafina, Dasani, DejaBlue, 20fl oz Mountain Dew. Heck, even a 2L Pepsi bottle will do. Step 2. Cut entire bottom of one bottle to make funnel. After making funnel, use Bottle2Bottle_coupler to tighten funnel onto second water bottle. Then, pour paint onto second water bottle. Step 3. Remove Bottle2Bottle_coupler from water bottles and tighten Bottle_Paint_Gun_coupler to bottle containing paint. Step 4. Tighten bottle with the Bottle_Paint_Gun_coupler onto paint gun. Step 5. Use knife and slash a breather hole onto top of water bottle before spraying. * Don't forget to use plumber's tape for steps 2,3 and 4! These water bottles have non sealing threads and leak with out plumber's tape! Printer settings: *PLA! *.2mm layer height (threads will not print correctly if you use .3mm!) *3 perimeters *You might want to print Bottle2Bottle_coupler with support. *You might want to slow down printer to 90% speed.
