As I have a 12 year old arthritic Labrador, I decided to model a pet food bowl riser to lift his food bowl off the floor to a height more comfortable for him to eat from. I have added 1st and 2nd stage legs meaning that if you only need it to be 130mm in height you only need to print the 1st stage legs. I have also lettered each leg for easy assembly with the exception of the 2nd stage legs which have suitable names accordingly to aid assembly. Just glue the leg “nipples” into the receptacles on either the corresponding place on the main ring or between stage 1 and stage 2 legs. The internal dimension for the main ring is 230mm so you would need a bowl with a base of no more than 230mm and your bowl will also need to be lipped to make the lip diameter 231mm+ otherwise your bowl will not be retained.
I have built in a 0.25mm tolerance for the spigots and the associated receptacles. The photos are of a test version I printed scaled down as I print on a Snapmaker which takes about 7 years to print the most simplest things. I intend on buying a Bambulab soon which will facilitate faster printing but this version scaled down to 40% took about 5 hrs to print.
