Thankyou to Murdoc for the original design!

When using the original print, I ended up drilling a hole in the side at the level I wanted the water to reach (to allow a ‘breather’ hole so water will flow when it is below this point). I decided to make my own version with the hole pre-made to ensure a good flow of water.

Bottles that have a rigid shape work best with this design, as it relies on the pressure inside the bottle to keep the water from flowing too much. You may find that using a bottle with weak sides (e.g. normal coke bottle) might allow more water than you expect.

Printed with PLA, 0.2mm Layer Height + 20% Infill
