No Supports needed for any of the parts.
Infill - 15% is recommended. You can go with a higher percentage if you want to.
Number of shells - 2 minimum, 3 recommended
Bottom and top thickness - 1 mm min, 1.2 mm recommended. This is primarily important for the bottom part so it wouldn't leak.
Here is a video of how to use it:

How to use it:
Add 2 spoons of apple cider vinegar and 1 spoon of dish soap to the bottom cup. The vinegar attracts the flies, and the dish soap breaks the surface tension so they can’t escape.
Pro Tip
- Waterproofing: To ensure the container is 100% leak-proof for liquid baits, it is recommended to apply a clear coat or sealant to the interior.
- Disclaimer: This is not a chemical trap – it’s just a good-looking container for an age-old trick.
