Summary

I made this puzzle feeder for my pet rats, although, it will work perfectly for any other small animal.

The centre cap is threaded so it can be removed to disassemble everything for easy cleaning.

I found that over time this turned out to be less of a puzzle and more like a foraging toy. A fun little thing nonetheless.

I've also added 3 types of links connecting the moving pegs: I-shape, Y-shape and X-shape. This helps keep the set up different over time.

The size is 120mm in diameter at the base (that's the max my printer can handle), but I suppose you can scale this up if you want to.
