Automated Pet Food Dispenser
Summary Status
Cut the wood support pieces using the CNC router. Next, I need to buy the PVC T and we can assemble all the pieces. I still don't have a motor but that can come later.

Description
I was looking for a project that I could do with my #2 son, Timothy. He suggested an automated pet food dispenser. I found one on instructables that looked pretty simple. Plus, it would let me use maker tools like the 3D printer and CNC router. Once I create the pieces, Tim and I will assemble it. I only hope our dog lives long enough to use it.
