Yes - the jerry cans are made by Dinuba Water and the spigot is sold on Amazon as "Beverage Dispenser Replacement Spigot,Oak Leaf Stainless Steel Polished Finished, Dispenser Replacement Faucet". I also experimented with several designs for security before coming up with a really good one....

On the second one, I did my homework and used cobalt drill bits, a very slow drilling speed and a LOT of cutting oil. Made a huge mess, but I got it done in 30 minutes. Lesson...
