I'm here with a helpful dog water bucket hanging solution for Ruffland kennels. I've found that the hangers on these cheap buckets don't seem to latch onto the Ruffland doors very well and the handles aren't a stable solution for hanging a bucket of water in a moving car. What I've come up with is essentially a cupholder for the standard and popular 1 Qt and 2 Qt buckets (flat side or round) that allows you to just drop in the bucket. This is a 3D printed mount made out of PETG which is very durable and heat resistant plastic.
The holder comes as two pieces, the part on the inside of the kennel with the big hole, and a small bracket that goes on the outside with two screws. This allows this to be a nonpermanent solution and "clamps" this holder onto the door by tightening the two screws onto the door from the outside. The holder will come with two M4x30mm screws so you will only need a Phillips screwdriver to install this mount!
It seems like there are many variations of these buckets circulating the internet, but my mount has a 125mm hole, so you may want to verify your bucket diameter near the top to be sure it will fit. If you have a different size, please feel free to reach out and we can create a customized solution for you!
