Something like this:

You need the threaded & gasket parts to hold pressure -
Home Depot & Lowe's probably have it - if not, go to a plumbing
supply ...

How do I install a spigot on these.

I searched Google and found instructions that include cutting a large hole
in the top and then securing the spigot on the inside with some type lock
nut.

Would it work to cut a hole a little smaller that the threaded end of the
faucet and using some type epoxy?

Will the pressure blow it out?

thanks
