If you hate flies as much as me and could really use a large digester bottle, then this might be the item for all you fellow Australians! I intend to use this to collect flies and feed them to my 4 chickens. Chicken food might be the next 'panic buy' during this pandemic, who knows!
How it was made:
First of all, I needed a lid, and I'm lazy and didn't want to make one. So I found one that I liked and resized it, thanks MortenGuldager for the threaded cap. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2920911
This was a simple cap shrunk in Tinkercad to an opening of 38mm, then I created a cone for the funnel, CTRL+D to duplicate the cone, and dropped it down 3mm below the work-plane and made it a 'hole'. I then created a cylinder 'hole' object and sliced the pointy bit off the cone and it was done!
I have printed it out and it fits my 2L milk bottles, as well as the Woolies pancake shaker bottle :) These flies are gonna regret visiting my house now!
