Sorry in advance about the blurry pictures.
Also, I am using a small bottle because i didn't have any two liters on hand
This project will turn a two-liter bottle into a liquid catcher to put over the spout on a 5 gallon cooler

First, peel the label off.
Then, make a line down the length of the bottle
Finally, make a line parallel to that on the opposite side

Find the places on the top and bottom of the bottle where it starts to curve. Typically this is marked by the label.
Cut the Top

Now you cut the remaining bit and cut the top off
Cut the Hole

The final step is to cut the hole to put over the spout on the five gallon cooler. Now you have a liquid catcher.I will update this instructable in the near future with two liter pics.
