# Cuttlefish Bone Tray for Exotic Birds ##A tray with a clip to hold cuttlefish bones. ### Features: * 1 top support to keep the bone in place * 1 hole in bottom to mount on a stand or tie/pin the bone through * 4 notches on the sides to tie the bone down with twine or rubber bands * 3 hooks on the back to hang from a cage wall Hooks are on the back are .45" wide/tall and spaced to fit a 1/2" wire grid or 1/2" hardware-cloth cage. Pictured below hanging from wire cage and with 1/2 a "large" cuttlefish bone tied in with twine. Can be printed quickly at low-quality settings with low infill... mine was ~5g of PLA and printed in ~30 minutes. Note: The Clip overhanging the tray is printed at a downward angle to take advantage of the way that layer lines naturally create "teeth" that will grip the bone a little better than a smooth bar. This also reduces the amount of support material necessary to print. Printed in PLA at 100%, the clip should be flexible-enough to bend up/down without breaking. ### Tinkercad links: * [cuttlefish-bone-tray-v5](https://www.tinkercad.com/things/9XF2ChX44MG-cuttlefish-bone-tray-v5) * [cuttlefish-bone-tray-v5 with no overhanging clip](https://www.tinkercad.com/things/lbO15Fojiol-cuttlefish-bone-tray-v5-no-clip)
