PET bottle water bowl

prusaprinters

<p>Water dispenser for pets, using a PET bottle as reservoir.</p> <p>Stable with a small (12 fl. oz. / 50 cl) bottle, but if using a larger one (like the 1.5 liter bottle in the picture), tethering to something like the leg of a table is highly recommended.</p> <p><em>Use<strong>common sense</strong> when selecting plastic if you intend on feeding your pets from this.</em> I printed with inert Taulman Nylon with great success, which also makes the bowl more or less indestructible.</p> <h3> Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Mini Kossel</p> <p><p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p><p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.4 mm nozzle; 0.2 mm layer height; 1 mm extrusion width; 2 perimeters</p></div><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>15% 3D honeycomb</p> <h3> <br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong> </p><div><p>Printed in Taulman Bridge Nylon</p></div> How I Designed This</h3> <p>Big kudos to JohK's original design (<a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:38224">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:38224</a>), which looks a lot better than mine; but I couldn't fit it on the bed of my new Kossel, so this one is specifically designed to fit a 170 mm diameter circular print bed.</p> </p></p> Category: Pets
