Description
Hello, fellow makers and pet lovers! 👋
We all want our furry friends to be comfortable, and proper posture during mealtime is a big part of their health. I designed this Adjustable Dog Bowl Holder to grow with your dog, providing the perfect eating height and taking the strain off their neck and joints. 🐶💛
This model is fully functional, incredibly sturdy, and designed with real-world use in mind. Even if your dog pushes hard while eating, this holder won't flinch!
✨ Key Features:
- Heavy-Duty Support: The rings holding the bowl are a solid 7x7 mm thick, and there is an additional solid support underneath the bowl of the same thickness. It is built to handle enthusiastic eaters!
- Height Adjustable: The 3-part design allows you to securely lock the bowl at the exact height your dog needs on the stand.
- Universal Mount: Perfectly fits any standard square tubing or wooden stand measuring exactly 25x25 mm.
- Standard Bowl Size: The ring is designed to snugly fit a standard dog bowl with an under-the-rim inner diameter of 195 mm (19.5 cm).
🛠️ Assembly & Hardware:
- Screws: The 3 main parts are secured using an 8 mm screw. I have included a 3D-printable screw in the files! However, for maximum durability, you can easily substitute it with a standard metal 8mm bolt.
- Glue Required: Because a 195mm ring (plus the thick 7mm borders) is too large for many standard printer beds, the ring is split into parts. You will need a strong adhesive (like Superglue/CA glue or Epoxy) to assemble the ring securely.
📏 Need a Custom Size? Does your good boy or good girl use a smaller or larger bowl? No problem! Just hit that "Follow" button on my profile and drop a comment or send me a direct message with your bowl's exact inner diameter. I will happily create and upload a custom bowl ring just for you!
🖨️ Print Settings & Warnings (Please Read):
- Material: PETG is highly recommended for its flexibility, layer adhesion, and food/water resistance.
- Infill & Walls: Use at least 4-5 wall loops and 20-30% infill (Gyroid or Cubic) for optimal strength.
- ⚠️ Assembly Warning: If you use the included 3D-printed 8mm screw, tighten it firmly but do not overtighten, or you risk shearing the plastic layers.
- ⚠️ Gluing Warning: Ensure the glue is fully cured before placing a heavy bowl of water into the ring.

A lot of time, measuring, and test-printing went into making this design as sturdy and functional as possible. If you find it useful (or if I made a custom size just for you!), a Boost is the highest compliment you can give. It keeps the coffee flowing and the printer running! ☕️🖨️
