Fruit Fly Trap - M3

Description

I tried several different fruit fly traps, but this one worked the best. The only problem is the peg broke off in the hole, so I had to tape it together. Needless to say, it wasn't as secure as I'd like.

For bait, use what most of these traps use: a piece of fruit or apple cider vinegar. I've also noticed that my old red bull cans seem to draw them in, and have had surprising success with using red bull. Not the typical bait, but who knows!

Hardware needed:

4 - M3 x 12-20mm bolts

The top allows for standard hex top M3 bolts or countersunk M3 bolts. Total depth on the top is 10mm, less 2-3mm for the bolt head. There's another 15mm available below on the base, which I tapered by 0.25% to help grab the bolt. Should thread itself easily enough.

Cheers!

Edit: Sorry, I uploaded the wrong top. The new top uses considerably less filament. There's no added benefit to having that solid of a top.
