    My daughter has a 3d printer, but she isn't great at programming. Can someone help me program something that I want to make? I'm wanting the dispenser part. I'm planning on using a 5 gallon water jug for the tank part.

    Here is the video of how it works...

    this is the closest file I can find. There are LOTS of 3d rendering tutorial on youtube using CAD and all sorts of things. AFAIK, geometrical shapes are some of the easier things to render, but scaling can be an issue.

    Pretty much Michigan.
    Is it the shutoff you want? Also you should find out if your daughters printer actually has the build volume to print something so big. Most dont.

    What you request is rather involved with dimension, fitment, and interaction of components. The neck size of your "water bottle" hopper along with neck dimensions of bottles to be filled need to be known. It could be rather intensive for someone to design this and then to ask them to give you control of the design to use as you please, might be asking too much.
