It costs you nothing, but it helps us immensely to continue creating new practical (and free!) designs for our little companions. A huge thank you in advance for your support! ❤️

No more soiled and scattered hay everywhere! Carefully designed for the well-being of your small companions, this wall-mounted hay rack is robust, practical, and designed for efficient 3D printing.

✨ Design Highlights:

  • Clip-on hinged lid: Thanks to its smart 'C' hinges, the lid clips directly onto the base's reinforcement bar with a slight play to pivot freely. Easy to open for refilling, it prevents your animals from jumping inside!
  • Reinforced structure: An upper crossbar connects all the rungs, providing excellent rigidity to the entire structure to withstand the most eager animals.
  • Optimized angled rungs: The 30 mm spacing between the 8 mm thick rungs allows easy access to hay while significantly limiting waste.
  • Designer's touch: A discreet embossed signature (D&M) awaits you at the bottom of the hay bin.

⚙️ Ready-to-use print profile:

The print profile is already optimized and distributed across two plates in Bambu Studio. You don't have to place anything, everything is ready!

  • Supports: Already configured for Plate 1 (the base). They are necessary under the top bar to ensure a clean print. Removal is easy thanks to tree supports.
  • Layer height: 0.20 mm (Standard).
  • Infill: 15% to 20% (Gyroid pattern for optimal strength).
  • Walls: 3 to 4 perimeters to properly stiffen the rungs.
  • Recommended material: PLA or PETG (PETG is recommended for its resistance and ease of cleaning, but PLA works very well).

🛠️ Assembly and Installation:

  1. Printing: Simply start printing both plates.
  2. Cleaning: Carefully remove all print supports from the base.
  3. Assembly: Take the lid and clip its 3 open hinges onto the upper cylindrical bar of the hay rack by applying very slight force. A small 'click' and it's in place!
  4. Fixing: The flat back allows for easy and versatile attachment. Personally, I use it for my free-roaming rabbit (no cage): I fixed it directly to the wall with extra-strong double-sided tape (3M type) and it holds perfectly! You can also drill through the back wall (4 mm thick) with a standard drill bit to insert screws, or use cable ties (Serflex) if you have a barred cage.
