Description

This is a modular 3D printed ant farm designed to work with standard acrylic sheets, eliminating the need for custom cutting in the nest area.

 

The nest section is specifically designed to fit pre-made 1 mm thick acrylic sheets directly, making assembly simple and precise. (2x 13x18 cm)

 

The foraging area requires custom-cut acrylic panels with the following dimensions:

  • 2 × 17.7 × 7.5 cm
  • 2 × 8 × 7.5 cm
  • Top lid: 17.9 × 7.4 cm

acrylic panels: https://www.amazon.es/dp/B08F4Z9RRQ?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

 

The lid includes a handle system using an M3 screw for easy opening.

 

It is recommended to use glue to securely fix the acrylic panels in place.

 

This design provides a clean, minimal, and functional setup for ant keeping, combining visibility, stability, and ease of assembly.
