I use 500ml bottles to package my monthly club internal comp entries. I like to use the TapCooler counterflow filler to purge and fill bottles. I couldn’t find an adapter for the 500ml bottles so I designed one in TinkerCAD and printed it. A 500ml bottle neck is a larger diameter and it is longer than a 12oz longneck bottle. I used 100% fill PLA+ and added some gussets thinking I may need the strength. Though I haven’t actually filled a bottle yet, preliminary indications are it may work.

This is sweet. Can you share the STL? I have similar bottles and Id like to build this.

Neat.
The 3d printers are finally getting affordable enough that I think the use-cases are starting to justify the investment.
What printer do you have?
Bambu Labs A1 (entry level)
I just got a line on deeply discounted secondhand (but unopened box) Creality Resin 3D 8K … So I might be taking the 3D plunge sooner than I expected.
