This is how I make my cage drippers, hang a 64oz Gatoraid bottle from the
ceiling, and let gravity to the rest.
I cut a hole in the bottom of the bottle and hot glue, or epoxy, and short
piece of plastic tube, or something to connect the tube to.
Then I get some clear 1/4'' ID tubing, put a cut-off clamp on, then a "quick
disconnect" so it's easy to take down and fill, then a stopcock to adjust the
dripping rate.
Another piece of tubing leads from the stopcock to the top of the cage.
I cut the tip off a 3cc plastic transfer pipette, and stick it in the end of the
tube. Put a hole in the screen, stick the pipette tip through, and keep it in
place with a wire tie:
