Or you could just buy one from WalMart that already has the top attached to it by a clever little do-hickey.......; )

@bugsy1491 Ahh true... I'm a bit of a roping nerd. I find double fishermans would be ok, true it's not properly secure but I tie them reasonably tight when I use them like this. If it needs to be that secure you can tie a similar knot to ones you use to ascend. They are generally one way.

@539forgotten a double fisherman's knot can be adjusted as shown in the vid, but it only locks off when the two dbl-overhand (stopper) knots, that make up the double fisherman, slide up against each other - not secure
I use this type of knot for a necklace/tool of mine to get it on and off easily, but I would want something more secure if I had it attached to a bottle/bottlecap - I do a bit of climbing and wouldn't want to drop the bottle if i had to grab it by the cap for example

I would never recommend a metal bottle. I've seen guys chip their teeth on these metal bottles. Use plastic bottles or metal bottles with soft rubber tops.

where do you get all your rope from... i need some

Its is pronounced bow-linn. I am a full time commercial fishermen, your argument is invalid. You get your head kicked in at the dock for saying bow-line.
@bl4ck0p ... would you prefer unicorns and butterflys?
