"So this is the choei bottle that we made earlier; it's set up, it's ready to have a spout put on it and I was taking a look at it and it really wants it right here just because the way it's flowing; I don't know it needs to go right there. So just take your needle tool; find right at the base of the neck right there, as you can see what I'm going to do here; I'm going to take this and it's going to go on this like this, alright. So I mean you wouldn't want to put it down here; well I guess you could put it down there but not this kind of spout, you need a different type of spout but this type of spout would be put right at the base of the neck. So get your needle tool; get your other things out of the way and just make a nice hole, and pull that out; you're not going to see this hole so it's not really important that it's perfectly round. So now that we've made our hole we're going to scratch and slip and we're going to put that spout on there."
