New and improved version!
Fully enclosed bowl holders with additional left and right base inserts. The new base also prevents food from getting under the bowls.
Extended the bowl location further away from the feeder.
Included a printable bowl.
I wasn't impressed with the food splitter the manufacturer sells so I designed my own version. This splitter was specifically designed for use with the Petsafe Simply Feed (PFD00-14574) using Greenbrier Kennel Club cat bowls. I got the bowls from our local Dolar Tree, and I was able to find them on their website. If you don't have these bowls and you don't want to order them, I designed a bowl specifically for this setup but I haven't printed one yet.
Installation:
The splitter has two core pieces required to function, base, and chutes. There are optional left and right base inserts to fully enclose the bowl and a stability ring to help keep the base inserts in place.
Step 1: remove the plastic ring that holds the factory food bowl (kind of a pain).
Step 2: place the chutes into place on the base front and rear support.
Step 3: lift the front of the feeder, slide the base back toward the feeder until it's flush with the feeder, and lower the feeder down over the rear base clip. It's a tight fit and you may lift the assembly up to confirm the splitter base is flush with the feeder base.
Optional
Step 4: Insert the left and right base inserts. You can glue them in place, but I chose not to.
Step 5: Insert one stability ring into each bowl location. If you chose to glue the inserts, the stability ring probably isn't necessary, but it won't hurt. I think some glue under the ring is also a good idea.
Printing Instructions:
For the base, inserts, and stability rings, I used Silk PLA, 0.20mm Speed, 0.6mm nozzle, 20% infill with the rectilinear pattern, and it took 6 1/2 hours to print.
For the chutes, I used Silk PLA, 0.15mm Structural, 0.6mm nozzle, 20% infill with the grid pattern, 5mm brim, no additional supports, and it took 2 1/2 hours to print. Not sure the brim is needed but I didn't want the print to come off the build plate. I went a smaller layer height to improve the print quality. I'm definitely no expert on printing and a different filament might have made the print come out better.
