Introduction: Chip Clip Measuring Cup for Pet Food: - Save 600%
In this mini tutorial, I will teach you how to make a Pet Food 'Chip Clip Measuring Cup' and beat the brand name, in store price by 700%. This DIY takes about 2 minutes to create and you can make up to three for the price of $2 vs the brand name in store price of $9 for only 1.
This video was created for the Instructables.com Pet Innovations Contest.
Tools you need:
- Drill and Drill Bit
- Screw Driver or Equivalent
- 2 Small Screws
Parts You Need:
- 1 Chip Clip
- 1 Measuring Cup (choose the right size your pet will require when feeding)
- 2 Small Screws
Time: 1-5 minutes
Amount Saved: Roughly 700% or About $7 Vs. buying a premade one in the stores
Let's Get Started:
Step 1: Step 1: Drill Your Holes
Drill two small holes 1 1/2 inches apart in both the Chip Clip and the measuring cup handle as shown in video. The holes should be slightly smaller than the Screw or Bolt you decide to use for a snug fit.
Step 2: Step 2: Screw Your Screws
Place the screws in through the chip clip and the measuring cup. Tighten snugly!
And Done. No, really that's it, All Done.
