Description
đ Insect Waterer & Bee Oasis (scalable & with ground spike)
Soon it's time to get started outside again, and our busy bees and other pollinators need to get to work. Especially on hot days without rain, it's often hard for them to find water.
Let's give something back to them! This insect waterer is not only functional but also a real eye-catcher in the flower bed or balcony box. Thanks to the flat flower design, insects can land and drink safely without drowning.
Features & Customization:
- Flexible: The model can be printed with or without the matching ground spike.
- Fully scalable: You can enlarge or reduce the waterer according to your wishes.
- Important note: If you change the size, please select both parts (waterer + spike) simultaneously and scale them together so that the fit of the ground spike is maintained!
- A1 Mini Friendly: In the standard size, the model fits perfectly on the Bambu Lab A1 mini.
Print recommendations for best results:
- Material: Absolutely use PETG or ASA so that the waterer remains UV-resistant and weather-resistant.
- Layer height: 0.2 mm.
- Walls: I recommend at least 3 wall lines so that the basin is guaranteed waterproof even without post-treatment.
- Infill: 10% is completely sufficient.
- You only really need supports for the ground spike
