Self-Breathing Water Dispenser Lid

Well, another 3D printer solution to a problem most people don't have. I only drink ice-cold water, so we always keep a water dispenser in our fridge. However, it drives me nuts because of the pressure caused by the tightened lid. Every time I want to fill a glass, the flow either trickles or I have to reach up and unscrew the lid then retighten (something about not having an uncovered jug just won't let me live). Anyway, I designed this replacement lid with very small holes in it. Nothing gets into the water that shouldn't, and the pressure is automatically released whenever I get water out of the spigot for a full flow. Here's the brand of container the lid was made for, but should fit anything of similar size or brand: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008Y651RO/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
