I thought this would be easy, but it hasn't been.

I have a RO system connected to a faucet sink via a faucet-to-garden hose thread.

However, I want to move it to a spare bathroom shower. I found an adapter online that converts a threaded shower pipe into a garden hose thread, but the connector on my RO system (female garden hose thread) doesn't screw all the way down on the adapter and therefore doesn't contact or compress the washer, creating a massive leak.

Has anyone found a workable adapter to convert a shower head thread (male) to a garden hose thread (male)?

Thanks!
