Backstory: Some of the Ross School's Innovation lab students are raising chicks in the school's EcoLab and we needed a small water dish.
We wanted a dish that the chicks would be unlikely to step in to help prevent their water from being contaminated.
We wanted to use a standard PET plastic bottle (here pictured with a "SmartWater" bottle we up-cycled. Note: The smaller water bottles are a little more stable and less likely to leak if filled to the top (too much pressure in the big ones).
You can see it in action (if they aren't sleeping) right now on the Ross School EcoLab's live webcam on the chicks.
And if you don't see any chicks you can see a short video here: https://youtu.be/GzNiKLl6jKE

PS: I've pulled the OpenSCAD file until I clean it back up. It was derived in part from Sprue's bird feeder base but I used Laird's 2 liter bottle thread.
