just out of curiosity would it be possible to get a video of one of them being printed I personally think that would be kinda cool to watch how they get made

From what they look like, they are pre cut pieces of acrylic that are ordered then put together. They're for sure not 3D printed though.

ooper01 I Know you posted this back in June but is there any chance you still have the large Camponotus still available?

Yes it is still here. You would need to do a little extra work to seal the entrances with some silicone since the entrances are rectangular. So the idea would be to insert some poly tubing and then seal around it with silicone to prevent escapees.

I should also mention that it does not have a base piece, so to provide hydration you would have to place it on top of a short "tub" of some kind. I have used old plastic containers and just cut them down to about 1 to 2 inches high, then filled them with cotton or perlite.
