osVAC (neo) remix to create a 90 degree elbow coupling (M32-F32). Both ends have a slip ring (i.e., can be rotated 360 degrees) and can be connected to a female and male adapter, respectively.

Printing worked fine when part was sliced with the elbow on the build plate and the two ends pointing upwards at 45 degrees. I then used some support enforcers to prevent the part to topple over during printing (see photos).

Also, I had to cut free the slip ring on both ends using a knife, but only at a small section about 2cm length. That particular section was pointing downwards during printing and the slip ring gap seemed to have glued together somehow. Based on your filament and print settings, you might or might not encounter this. Anyway, after cutting along the slip ring and applying a little force by hand, both ends rotate perfectly.
