Drawer:
This system has stackable drawers and each drawer holds 12 cube modules, easy to expand by stacking on top of a new drawer, and has a huge outworld at the top. A built in stair is at one corner for ants to easily move up and down.

Dimensions: Drawer 16.53x16.22x5.11 inch/42x41.2x13 cm
                     Drawer Outworld 16.22x16.06x3.93 inch/41.2x40.8x10 cm

Weight: Drawer 10.36lbs/4700g
             Drawer Outworld 5.95lbs/2700g

Drawer is mainly made of aluminum alloy and wood.
Drawer Outworld is acrylic with no plaster(would be too fragile and heavy)

Will ship mostly assembled, all you need to do is to connect the acrylic tubing inside the drawer, peel the films, and put the lid together for the outworld.

Drawer $200
Drawer Outworld $100

 

I don't always have this in stock, if not, a 30-40 day lead time may be required before shipping.

Is the drawer compatible with other nests from other brands?.

It's designed specifically to fit the cubes perfectly but if you want you can make other nests work by connecting to the entrance with tubing and should work just fine

How much for everything? 36 cubes?

Depends on what module combinations you are looking for, you can dm if you are looking to buy that many.

[Ice_City]

Stocks are very low now, only a few cubes left. Drawer set is also out of stock now. Should have more by next month. If you have an order in mind, let me know ahead!

 

Also, paypal is added as a payment method now.

I would love the see the inner workings on that draw system/outworld connection. How does the nest space stay attached to the outworld above it, as the drawer is moved in and out?
An animated gif/short video of that mechanism in aciton would be very interesting to see.

Here's a short video on how the drawer works.

Happy new year everyone.

 

I am completely out of module A and large outworld right now.

 

I need some time to catch up and anyone looking for these will probably need to wait til Feburary. But if you have a small colony, you can always start with one module C and a small/medium outworld.
