3-D printed variable pattern nozzle

A method for producing a variable lighted water pattern, the method comprising:

• providing a monolithic 3-D printed nozzle assembly configured to produce a variable water pattern comprising:
• a first translucent hollow section portion comprising an integrally formed translucent wall portion, the first hollow section portion configured to receive a first stream of water and provide a linear stream of water moving along a linear axis;
• a translucent tangential injector portion integrally formed with the first translucent hollow section portion, the translucent tangential injector portion defining at least one passageway, the translucent tangential injector portion configured to receive a second stream of water and direct the second stream of water to rotate about a rotational axis using the at least one passageway;
• a second translucent hollow section portion comprising the translucent wall portion of the first hollow portion, integrally formed with an outer translucent wall portion of the second hollow portion, the second hollow section portion configured to receive the second stream of water and to provide a rotating stream of water that rotates about a rotational axis from the tangential injector portion, such that the rotational axis is other than perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, providing a third stream of water formed from the first and second streams of water;
• a third translucent hollow section portion comprising the translucent wall portion of the first hollow portion integrally extending from the second hollow portion, the third translucent hollow section portion configured to receive the linear stream of water and the rotating stream of water, such that the linear axis and the rotational axis are non-perpendicular, and provide a third stream of water formed by the linear stream of water and the rotating stream of water;
• and
• a nozzle tip portion configured to receive the third stream of water and direct the third stream of water into an exterior environment via an orifice;
• selectively providing the first stream of water to the first translucent hollow section portion;
• selectively providing the second stream of water to the second translucent hollow section portion;
• forming a third stream of water from the first stream of water and the second stream of water;
• providing the third stream of water to the third translucent hollow section;
• and
• directing the third stream of water into the exterior environment via the orficie of the nozzle tip portion received from the third translucent hollow section.
