A tap that lets you screw a bottle on, to collect sap from a tree!
A clever tree tap that lets you screw a water bottle on! Fresh maple sap is actual...ly quite delicious, especially if you add a little bit of lemon juice. Put the bottle on at the beginning of the day, and enjoy some sap later. See Bill of Materials for instructions.
Notes: Tree tapping is usually done in very early spring, when the trees are just thawing.
This design also incorporates thing:35907.

3. Drill a hole in a maple tree with a 15/32 inch or 12mm bit, about 5 or 6 cm deep.
4. Push the assembled tap in, wait until some sap starts coming out. It could take a couple minutes.
