Any survivalists here?
Looking for a diy or frugal way to easily dispense water from a large
and heavy 5 gallon glass water jug.
Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Good morning.
Hoping one of you folks know a solution. I have a glass 5 gallon
carboy that I got from a brewing store so that I could start storing
water. Trouble is it's too heavy and awkward for the family to use
easily. I know in Mexico they have swing-style water dispensers that
even a child can use, but I can't find any source from US/Canada ...
not on eBay, or Walmart (and I don't use Amazon any more).
Even a diy dispenser would be fine if easy to use. I've searched for
a month with no luck.

These are examples of the type of thing I mean (single or double, with
or without fancy basket extra):

I've included several links as sometimes pages don't work everywhere.
---------------------------
The survivalists/preppers in this group, perhaps you've already
thought of something to make for easy dispensing without it being a
cooler style, which takes up too much space, or without being
electric?
I found many battery-operated doohickeys which defeat the purpose. We
need basic survival tools not something else that requires batteries,
etc.
Thanks and any help appreciated. Have arthritics in family so would
be nice to find something as easy as one of the swing dispensers above
but that ships to US/Canada easily.
