This cat feeder is a remix to add functionality.

It uses 3 feeders, each with an RFID reader to read each cats collar tag. Each dispenser has its own auger based dispenser powered by a NEMA17 stepper motor. The RFID readers and steppers are controlled by an arduino uno and an esp8266 (D1 Mini). Two motor shield V2s are used to actually control the motors. All power is supplied by a 5v adapter. The electronics all sit in between the 3 vertical PVC tubes (3" PVC).

The two horizontal pieces holding the PVC and electronics have one pipeholder and 3 clamps. They're then connected with 3 sideplates.

Each dispenser has the dispenser, 4 legs, one motorplate, both sides of the auger, the bowlstand, the lid, and the lidpipebracket. As it IS, I had to shoot some small screws to hold the lid on and connect the pipeholder to the PVC pipe. I'll fix it later to utilize the same connections as everything else, but the pipeholder was designed to stick to the pipe with plastic epoxy. The bow
