Let's design a cover first

To overcome the leak issue, I decided to use a replacement rubber gasket of hydro flask in my design. To test how much water tight my design was, I decided to start my designing a cover instead of going directly for the adapter.

Improve thread

I received a caliper as a gift that help me take more precise measurement of the hydro flask thread. This created a much more water tight interface.

Leak through the plastic

The first iteration I did had leak through the plastic itself. Here are some modification I brought to my design and printing process to get a water tight print

Result

In the end, the final cover was tested with for 1h with the bottle tilted and couldn't find any leak of water.

I provided in the files section, the stl file of the hydro flask cover.
