I made this to weigh down filament spools that were getting near empty.

I found adding a weight on the inside of the spool held it down without adding much of any additional friction to the system. The screw cap intentionally fits tightly to aid in watertightness. You can break it in by screwing and unscrewing it a few times. To use, fill the container with heavy weight (I used 90 x 1.5", 5/16 hole washers on a 5" long, 1/4" bolt, which added 2lbs of weight). It does hold water without leaking but
