Project Contents
2 models included
With holes → for mounting with anchors/screws
Without holes → for mounting with adhesive/strong glue
2 print profiles (PLA) optimized for Bambu filaments
– One profile for the version with holes
– One profile for the version without holes
Short "How to Scale" video: measuring and scaling in Bambu Studio to adapt the diameter to your bowl.
Upon request: optimized PETG profiles.
Why it's useful
Zero floor space → broom/mop/robot passes without moving anything.
Front opening → insert/remove the bowl in a flash.
Ergonomic tilt → more comfort for the dog/cat, fewer drips.
Adjustable → compatible with standard stainless steel bowls; scaling allows you to achieve the perfect diameter.
How to adjust the size (Bambu Studio)
Import the model.
Use Measure to determine the inner diameter of the support ring.
Use Scale → Uniform to resize until the diameter matches the rim of your bowl.
(Tip) Print a test ring: only the first 3–4 mm of the ring to check the fit.
➡️ The video with all the steps is attached.
Printing recommendations (PLA)
Use the included profiles (optimized for Bambu filament): they guarantee the best results on this model.
If you want to set it manually:
Layer 0.20 mm, 3 perimeters, infill 25% (Gyroid/Rectilinear), top/bottom 4, no supports.
Recommended speeds (slower): outer wall 60 mm/s, inner wall 100 mm/s, infill 200 mm/s.
Disable the "Single wall on top surface" option for a sturdier, gap-free top.
Adhesion: Light brim if necessary.
PETG: Optimized profiles available upon request (recommended for humid environments or more "robust" use).
Assembly
With holes (anchors): Countersunk screws + appropriate wall anchors; do not overtighten.
Without holes (adhesive): Thoroughly degrease the wall (IPA), apply pressure, and respect the adhesive's cure time.
Height: Approximately a little below your pet's elbow.
Safety & Notes
Designed for stainless steel bowls (food/water do not touch the printed part).
The load capacity depends on the material, settings, and mounting: check the seal before use, especially with large/energetic pets.
Disclaimer: To achieve the expected quality, I recommend using my included PLA profiles (optimized for Bamboo filament).
If you use different profiles/materials, I assume no responsibility for any poor print quality or performance.
