Mini Soil-Based Water Dish

Reliable and practical solution for your small animals.

Printing recommendations & Assembly

I recommend to print in PLA, PETG, or a combination of both.

For example, you can use PLA for the cup and PETG for the dispenser, especially if it will be placed outdoors.

The project consists of two parts:

• The water dispenser
• Cup (optional)

No assembly is required. Simply remove the supports and press the dispenser directly into the soil 🔽

Dimension & Scaling

• Dispenser

Capacity: 2.2 cl ≈ 1.5–2 tablespoons

Size: 80 × 80 × 40 mm (spikes: 33 mm)

• CUP

Capacity: 6 cl ≈ 4 tablespoons

Size: 59 × 59 × 43 mm

Maintenance

This container requires no maintenance other than refilling the water, depending on your pet's needs.

For example, I refill it once a week for my hibernating turtles.
