I make these for customers and as gifts
I start off by cutting down my pallet boards to the sizes i need
Then i gorillaTh glue the boards together for the lid at 10x23
Then i place the bowls upside down on the lid trace the outline of the bowl and drill a 5/8 hole so i can get my jig saw blade in it
5/8 hole in the center
Here is the cutouts of the bowls i stay about a 1/4 inch in and i do not cut rite on the out line mark
Then i cut out the outlines but i do not cut rite on the lines i stay in by 1/4 in of the circle with a jig saw
perfect outlines for the dog bowls to fit
Then i nail all of my cuts to the frame
Nail the front and back first and then the sides
then i stained it and when it dried i added the plastic liner for the food and added the bowls
Then i added 2 little chains that will hold the Bone that can be personalized to my pets name and hangs in front of the feeder
Here you have a Raised dog feeder and water tray with dog food storage

I love the raised feeder. I am thinking of making but thinking to build it around a plastic tote to keep dog food mouse safe. I also have to space the bowls farther apart or add vertical a partition, sisters fuss at each other while eating. Your simple design lends itself to many variation, thank you!
