Description
Designed this simple test tube holder for our ant colony so I could explore ants together with my toddler.
The design holds a standard test tube securely and includes a hinged flip-open lid, making it easy to quickly check on the ants without removing the tube. It isn't a professional ant-keeping setup—just a fun little project made for learning, observing, and spending time together.
Perfect for:
This was designed as a practical prototype, so feel free to remix or improve it. If you make any upgrades, I'd love to see what you come up with!
