AntBuddy Ant Nest Formicarium

thingiverse

I designed this to keep my queen ant and her workers housed secure with a viewing window to view there movements. There is approx 16mm hole to allow the test tube to sit securely , if your tube doesn't fit either sand down a little for a nice fit or simply add a rubber washer around the tube. The back wall has a slot to slide some 0.3mm clear acrylic and allow to add some soil to the back wall, the acrylic helps the soil from falling out and also allows for easy viewing of the ants on there adventures. Easy cut acrylic with a marking knife or stanley blade, with some slight pressure and a metal ruler or straight edge simply keep runing the blade down your measurements. The front window also sits in secure and is also for 0.3mm measures 9.8cm in length 8.7cm in height these are approx it depends on your printer settings. Simply measure after printing and cut your acrylic to size I printed on low quality settings and took around 5-6 hours depending on your tweeked settings in your slicer. I have included a few files the main has all included in 1 print i have also included the main with no back wall also included wall on its own, you can then print another colour and glue in place if required, or simply want to add your own style. If you don't have a printer and would like to purchase please do message me here Again for anyone interested in selling this model please also contact me, i can customise the front with your required business name etc if needed.
