\"A
\nOne of our coworkers recently approached us with a project idea.  She wanted to build a raised feeding stand for her boxer -Panzer.  We are always looking for fun project ideas here, and couldn’t resist an opportunity to create something for a furry friend.
\nWe decided to make this a scrap project, with the wood, paint, and extra materials we had laying about the studio.
\nMaterials:<\/strong>
\nWood boards*:
\n4″x 0.75″ board cut to the following lengths:
\n2 x 26.5 inches
\n2 x 11 inches
\n11″ x 0.75″ board cut to 25 inches in length
\n4 x 8″ Hairpin legs – we ordered ours online.
\nSemi-gloss paint in the color of your choice- we used Beachside Drive M460-2
\n2 dog bowls
\nSpray varnish- optional
\n1.5″ finishing nails or brads
\n1.5″ wood screws
\nPainter’s tape
\nTools:<\/strong>
\nBrad gun or hammer
\nSander or sanding block
\nMini roller or paintbrush
\nJigsaw
\nPower drill or screwdriver
\n*The measurement guidelines listed above are designed with the wood we had on hand, and for the size of the dog we were constructing for. Feel free to alter the dimensions and colors for larger or smaller dogs…or cats even!<\/em>
\nStep 1: Cut your wood and create a frame<\/strong>
\nMeasure and cut your scrap wood pieces to create a rectangular frame and secure it together.
\n\"wood
\nStep 2: Cut the stand top to length<\/strong>
\nThe top piece should fit snugly within the wooden frame<\/p>\n

Step 3: Place and nail stand top<\/strong><\/p>\n

Place the stand top within the frame and secure to the frame.<\/p>\n

Step 4: Measure and trace bowls<\/strong>
\nAlign your bowls on the stand top.  Trace a line around the bottom of the bowl.  If your bowls flare outward you may want to trace the inner lip of the bowl, so they fit down into the stand.
\n\"A
\nStep 5: Drill a guide hole and saw out circles<\/strong>
\nDrill a guide hole at the top, but within, the traced circle.  Place the jigsaw blade in the hole and carefully saw around the traced circle. Repeat for the other circle.
\n\"Drilling
\nStep 6: Sand<\/strong>
\nSand the top of the stand to level and smooth.
\n\"Sanding
\nStep 7: Cut, glue and secure leg blocks <\/strong>(optional)
\nWe needed a bit of extra height for the legs we purchased.  This step may or may not be necessary depending on the legs and wood you are using.
\n\"Cutting
\nStep 8: Tape edge and apply varnish<\/strong> (optional)
\nBecause we had a nice looking piece of wood to top our stand, we decided to keep it natural and apply a layer of clear varnish.  If you’d like to paint your stand one color, skip to step 10.
\n\"Taping \"Spraying
\nStep 9: Remove tape and reapply for painting<\/strong>
\nWhen the varnish has completely dried, remove the tape and reapply for painting.
\n\"Removing \"Adding<\/strong>
\nStep 10: Paint<\/strong>
\nWith a roller, or brush, paint your stand.  Allow to dry and apply second coat if necessary\/desired.
\n\"Painting
\nStep 10: Attach legs<\/strong>
\nLine the hairpin legs in the corners of the stand.  With your power drill, or screwdriver, drive your wood screws through the holes into the stand. Repeat until all legs are secure.
\n\"Attaching
\n\"Bottom
\nStep 12: Turn the stand over, insert bowls, and fill with food and water for your pet!<\/strong>
