Set of 4 - 1 Gallon to 5/16 Hose Adapter - Maple Sap Collecting
This adapter threads onto a normal 1 gallon container allows the common 5/16" tubing used in hobby sap collecting to fit snugly into into it.
This listing is for a pack of 4 adapters.
I might have other colors availible, if there's a specific color you'd like please feel free to message me and ask!

So I always thought you had to get sap from sugar maples to make maple syrup, but a few years ago I learned you can make maple syrup from big leaf maple trees! So Wiferneer and I gave it a try, turns out it's not that hard and the end product is delicious!

We just tapped our trees last week, and one problem we have is that the caps for the one gallon containers we use to collect our sap get brittle and crack when left outside for awhile. (We find the 1 gallon containers are a lot easier to hike out with than a 5 gallon bucket).
Not a huge issue, but rain and other things were able to get in through the cracked caps, so I made this doodad in Fusion 360 and it's been working great the last few years.
