Sprinkler with 3/4" thread - no moving parts

This is a minor remake of the https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3068655 by 3DPNoob. Thanks for the great design! After printing out multiple other sprinklers with moving parts with no great success, since I am only running a rainwater pump with is delivering max. 2.5 bar, this is the first sprinkler which really covers a big area even at low water pressure. If you mount it on a pole, you can reach easy a 6-8m diameter coverage with only 2.5 bar. Higher pressure should provide an even bigger range. I did the remake since the initial sprinkler has no attachment and you have to use the hose for that. Now you can just screw the base plate to whatever surface (e.g. a pole) and just attach the sprinkler to the base plate. This comes in handy since a lot of people are using Gardena style hose connectors. Therefore I first tried to directly print a Gardena connector, but the tolerances of the available connectors lead to some minor leaking and you always need the additional rubber seal. So I decided to also model a sprinkler with an additional 3/4" thread (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2811608) so you just an attach standard and Gardena 3/4" hose connectors. If you want to have a female 3/4" connection, just use the base design https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3068655 part. And if you want to add your own remake just use the included FreeCAD Model
