3D model description

It is a small-sized antnest with two chambers and a humidification tank with great autonomy ( even more than a week at 20/25Β°C), the water tank is connected to the rest of the nest by micro holes.

This ant nest is ideal for the initial phase of the colony's life, after about a year the colony can be moved to a larger ant nest such as "ANT NEST MEDIUM".

All you need to build it:

-a (10 * 5)cm acrylic/plexiglass sheet (I used one of a 2mm thick photo frame)
-2 screws (m3*20mm) +2 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 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

PS: the yellow ant nest in the photo is an earlier version of the current one, in that case the humidification tank was smaller and contained cotton, the new version does not require cotton and can be filled up directly with water.

Have fun :-)
