The anxiety level when the knife to wrist ratio maxed out!! Your trust in yourself and the use of a basic knife is noteworthy. Good feeder idea though! Think I’ll use a jigsaw to make my cuts, I don’t have that level of knife confidence.😅
Totally
tip: draw your cutouts with a marker. and then heat up an old knife on the stove. cuts like butter.
thanks very much your cool idea!
So glad I found this. Going on vacation and needed a way to make sure my dogs have food even though I have family checking on them daily. Now they only have to come every other day.
One decently effective dog feeder! At the cost of three fingers!
I made one, thanks man good stuff. The only thing I did differently was use zipties instead of cutting out those strips and put a weight on top of the whole thing cuz my dog is clumsy. 😂
Great video.
Thank you for this!! I needed a no fuss way of feeding my dogs, and your method is the best
Very enjoyable weekend Slash your hand and finger project, very good.--
AQ! Awesome animal feeder trick!) He's a TinkerBell magic fairy! Constructive MacGyver!)
That was nerve-wracking, but informative. Thanks 👍
Great video! Ty for sharing this with us!!
OMFG I was cringing at how you handle that knife. ... Good job tho
There Goes A Finger... 😅
My dog will eat the whole bucket in one day lol 😆
Cut the bottom out of 5 more buckets and stack…
Mine too
Lol then starve the rest of the week
My dogs did also, beagles will just keep eating. But after 2 weeks , they will learn, and only eat alittle at time.
Wow this would make a good feeder for the chicken or hogs too
You know this is going to be legit. The man is using a Buck knife!
Love this idea and I'm totally stealing it.
Lol... it seriously works really well for animals that just need a constant supply of food!
Ummm if u say totally its not beleivable
The hard time you passed with those things is worthy at the end! Nice idea
Cool im gunna make one for my st bernard when we go to the boat on weekends..🤙
Omg the knife though!
I suggest you make the bowl half first. It seems it would be easier to cut the hole to match that than it was to make the bowl to match the hole.
1:49 you need a serrated knife to cut the plastic faster, it's much easier. It also works great on softer plastics and rubber.
I just went in my garage and replicated you design. Except, I use the bottom bowl of my cat feeder, instead of making a bowl. I also used my angle grinder to make the cuts, instead of a knife. Thanks !!!
Yeah man good job, terrible idea with the knife though😬, maybe a Dremel?
This is a dog and rats dream.
Seems doable. I wonder if adding the extra bucket half on top would make it hold a bit more. I free-feed my pets and I'd love to be able to have the entire bag of food in the dispenser at once instead of having to have an extra container to store the leftovers.
Not a bad idea...
Great idea
I Like it. Thank You Brother
I made this for my pets and its works great!
Good for when on vacation, but I'm sure the black birds will be all over the dog food while I'm vacationing vacationing
Bruh got me made me think he lost a finger lol😂😂😂
Good job you saved my day I really needed it
I also feed my dog with this food I'm very pleased I suggest you amzn.to/39LSt0J
That shit “make you have to pee” feeling. 😂😂😂
wonderfull thank you
Thanks great idea !!!
Dudes making me nervous with this knife 🤣🤣 you must have really good insurance because he is just trying to go to the ER
Watching this was like watching free climbers slip. How uou have any hands fingers or arms left is beyond me. Clearly you survived because the video got uploaded but it wasn't for your lack of trying to take yourself out. Was a tough watch. If kids think horror movies are scary they should watch this video cause you dial it up to full. Phew.
@Adam SMITH
Lmao I was wincing the whole time.
It was not bad at all... if you have had handle knifes in a farm daily... you will have the ability and practice he has
Ah, he's got it.
These people and the knife comments 😂 Must not have any out door life 💯!
That was painful to watch but worth it. lol
Been looking for something like this thanks
WoW thanks so much
👍
Great idea. But I believe my 4mth old American Staffordshire Terriers would just push over an eat all of it
Aside from the risk of losing a finger or 2 using a knife, I'd say this would be pretty good. I'd probably use some sort of crafting cutter tool or something.
How did his thumb survive this? I was certain he'd lose the end of it.
I also feed my dog with this food I'm very pleased I suggest you amzn.to/39LSt0J
DUDE ! 😳You're stressing me out with the knife! But good job! 👍
I would use zip ties but 👍
i have better idea :: use pvc tube pipe n 2 90' s. pvc tube pipe can be ur desired size 4, or larger
I have nine dogs and this will be amazing for all nine I recently made a water one just like that but with a bucket and a cat litter pan will you make a hole in inside a bucket and then it fills into the cat litter pan and then it fills up a little bit past the hole and it stops water flow and it’s basically an automatic water bowl just like dog bowl
Had me praying for him to not get cut
Nevermind, I'll just spend the money at buying one
This looks like a 10 band aid job. 😬
I wouldn’t waste your money on band aids, you could easily hold it together with chewing gum
This guy make nervous to see m using the knife.
You just saved me $50 thank you
This was a Train Wreck until you pushed the lid in. Pretty good actually.
I think it’s a great idea but my dog is a crazy girl lmao she will eat that bucket.
Yeah i never understood why the sell the buckets and lids separate . Love the idea im just afraid my dog will eat all the food in 1 day :D thanks
I’m biting my nails watching this. Knife and smooth plastic. 😬
Not a bad idea but I think there is something missing, some dogs are not so educated as my English bulldog she wouldnt stop eating til she is done with the whole bucket🤣🤣 well that’s just my dog, great stuff Sir. Thanks for your hard work and time I mean it!!!..
Dogs that are not fed free choice have a “starving dog” mentality. They never know when their next meal is going to arrive so they constantly eat everything they can. When dogs switch over to being fed as it would come naturally to them in the wild - they self regulate as they realize the food is always available and not being held hostage by humans.
It's a great way to feed rats and coyotes in my experience 😅
I was thinking about just getting a big pvc pipe into a smaller pvc pipe into his bowl something like that
Being a lover of all things puppy...in one of your videos, can we see her? 😁
Very good but you wouldn't want this guy to build you a cabinet a bit rough and ready with that knife.
Good idea. I just think I’ll use an angle grinder and some rivets instead though.
He makes me nervous with that knife!
Why not use a drill and then use a jig saw?
fixitman I think he did it this way so he wouldn’t need any other tools. I’m an old woman and I trust myself with a knife and scissors. Not so much with a jig saw lol. 😳
@@thymenabottle2515 I can understand. Your tools would be safer if you are uncomfortable with the jigsaw. Thanks for the reply
fixitman it would be too easy!
back in the 1800s UA-cam showed how many dislikes a video had.
Thanks for the video, nice idea. In the other hand this is not for me, I will probably cut myself 10 times before finishing the feeder :D
One word - GLOVES!
This is great idea .. but ! On any case you are not leaving this on the open and birds and crows can eat all day your dog food o I have it je past a bad experience so many crows eating in 2 days food for a week on my open feeders similar like this ones 😢
Are you able to sell some?
Great job, but I knew the injury was going to happen.
How to protect the food from ants and pest?
Diatomaceous earth
they eat there too........
Meanwhile, Walmart has auto feeders for $10.00. Saves time and bandaids
This size? TSC has large feeders for $49.99
Noise of the truck is so annoying 😊
🙈 watch your fingers
sinira ung timba amfotahahaha
Dude how do you still have all your fingers?
Duct Tape and whiskey (for disinfectant)
Will it scratch my dog
Maybe its me.. tried it with my bloodhound & it didn't last 2 DAYS
is my dog the only one who would eat this plastic in 2 days?
Why did you take out the soul separately sticker when you buy a bucket you have to buy the lid separately
You do not have to buy the lids. They come with the bucket, unless you want to be gullible.
I have been wondering how you were going to have a way to keep all the food from falling out of the top bucket and then you show the lid which is bigger than the bucket inside. That takes up half the inside of the bucket that is meant for food. There is a better way to do this. I was also going to ask if this can be done with the five gallon water jugs - until I saw that you wasted a lot of space with the lid. Since you still have a lot of the other bucket, take about half to three quarters of the side of the other bucket and cut one side rounded, the other side straight. Start at the top of the opening you cut for the food to come out and tape it or glue it - (on the side the food is not in contact with) - going down until you get a slant going toward the back. There should be at least three inches for the food to fall through. This way you will utilize more space for the food to be in the bucket and it will not all fall out too quickly. This reminds me of the chicken feeder I have in the chicken run. It holds over five gallons of grain. Let me know if I helped.
Too ugly to use indoors, but I bet this would be handy on a farm or something.
Sharpen your knife, that sucker is dull
The problem with this is it's easy for your dogs to over eat and get sick, fat, or worse due from something called bloat. Dogs who eat to fast this is not good for them at all. You need something that gives out portion control. You can do something like this for water. That's ok.
Most large dogs do not over eat fed free choice. They eat when hungry.
He spent around $15 dollars for those 2 buckets. I rather buy the food dispenser!
Considering a food dispenser that size is $49.99 at TSC - I think he’s in the right track.
Next time, could you use a tin roof as a workbench? It’ll give us a little more noise…ya dunce
Whats the point if it doesent regulate how much my dog eats and just keeps the dog full?? Why not just put everything in a massive bowl in that case???
Why regulate your dog? Animals are not regulated in the wild and they know how much to eat - domestic or wild.
Some dogs know when to push back from the table. When we have to leave for a few days our boy paces himself. He only eats when he's hungry and that's normally at night or late evening. He's a big healthy German Shepherd.
My dogs will destroy that thing
Janky AF
If it keeps the bowl full - then wouldn't this be the same as just leaving an open sack of dog biscuits or large container on the floor 🤔
EXHAUSTING!!!! I WILL JUST BY A FEEDER FOR $40 AND KEEP MY FINGERS, INFLATION CANT BE THIS BAD!!!!
