Rather than tying up another fabricator with printing a nozzle while this one sits idle, you consider it best to borrow a nozzle from something not in use so no fabricators are sitting unused.

You find a hose end from one of the showers that was made to the same standardized shape. It takes a bit of filing down, but you manage to get it to fit the fabricator.
