It is a medium-sized antnest with several chambers and a humidification tank with great autonomy ( even more than a week at 20/25°C), the water tank is connected to the rest of the nest by micro holes.
All you need to build it:
- a (10 * 10)cm acrylic/plexiglass sheet (I used one of a 2mm thick photo frame)
- 3 screws (m3*20mm) +1 screws (m3*30mm) and nuts
- 10/11mm external diameter tube (to connect the nest to the arena) (my tube is external diameter 11mm/ internal diameter 8mm and fits perfect)
Print files explanation:
- Body + Cap (same color, not fitting in A1 mini)
- Only Body (print in white) - A1 mini OK
- Only Cap (print in black or a dark to prevent light to go inside a disturb ants) - A1 mini OK
Print setup:
- 0,2mm layer height
- use supports and print it in normal position
- use standard Pla, I used white for the nest and black for the cover to prevent the light from going inside
Have fun :-)
