Adafruit solenoid cover

I needed a cover for the solenoid on my Home automation irrigation & aquaponic systems. I could only find one example by Marxmit here https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2373942.

I printed it and found it did not fit my cheap Chinese version of the Adafruit solenoid, so I broke out the calipers, and taking inspiration from Marxmit' s cover, I made this version using Tinkercad.

The hole in the front is for a 15mm pvc conduit gland.

A simpler cover can also be found here for the same solenoid as the one I have.
