The file 'Automatic Small Fish Feeder – Parts 3D Printer Model' is (stl,thing,scad,x3g,skp) file type, size is 1.8MB.
I liked coberdas Automatic Fish Feeder but it dispensed too much food per cycle. I wanted to use the feeder to feed 5 neon's for a 2 weeks so I created a smaller hopper and an auger with more turns to dispense the food in smaller amounts.
The parts collection is a bit of a mess but I thought I'd throw all the source out there for anyone traveling this holiday season that aren't planning on taking their fish with them.
How we used it:
We used an Arduino with a continuous rotation servo attached. We powered it with a Macbook that had Skype on auto answer and had a remote desktop app running so the kids and I could adjust it remotely if we thought it needed it.
I've have to say it was kind of fun to view it from a thousand miles away…
