1st stage custom door wedge for cage

thingiverse

I started designing a custom cage accessory on my Facebook page, where I shared pictures of my measurements and sketches. I began by measuring the cage door's size and how far it protruded when fully extended and level. Next, I measured the side of the cage from the bottom of the door to the bottommost part of the bars, where they met the plastic base. Then, I used 123D Design to create basic shapes that matched my design and measurements as closely as possible. Once complete, I sent it to the 3D printer for printing and evaluation. This custom wedge is designed for a cage measuring 77 x 47 x 58 cm, suitable for two rats. The bar spacing is 1 cm, and the door on the side is 19 cm tall and 18 cm wide.
