DOG FEEDER (5in PCV PIPE)

pinshape

This project is still in its infancy, but the concept is straightforward: purchase a 5-inch PCV pipe from your local hardware store and use it as the base for a dry dog food dispenser. With some creativity, this design could also be modified to serve as a cat feeder or even incorporate a stepper motor for an automatic animal feeding system. To assemble this device, you'll need to acquire the following components: * 5-inch 40 PCV pipe * 2 x 608 ball bearings * 8mm thread rod (or possibly an 8mm bolt) * Printed collar * 2 x printed 5-inch feeders (half moons) * 2 x dog bone knobs Begin by gluing the collar to the 5-inch PCV pipe. Next, install the ball bearings and then attach the 5-inch feeder assemblies to each other, aligning the holes carefully. Drive the thread rod through the feeder assembly and secure it with a knob. Finally, mount the device on a wall (clamp designs are still needed) and fill the feeder with dog food for a convenient and automated feeding system.
