Here is a food or water dish for mounting to a 1/2" PVC pipe that I'm using for a perch.
I first take the PVC and rough it up with a bench grinder so that my lil' buddies will get a good texture to grip onto while perching on the PVC pipe.
Print this item with the rounded side on the bed and use supports, it prints very nicely and uses much less support material than you think. This makes the best printed surfaces the ones that face the birds. 3-4 shells or layers will make a good water tight seal. print with a 10-15% infill.
