That is by far the coolest plaster nest I've ever seen. Can't wait to see the colony at its fullest in that nest, it's gonna look awesome!!!

Proverbs 6:6-8 New International Version (NIV)

Go to the ant, you sluggard;
    consider its ways and be wise!
It has no commander,
    no overseer or ruler,
yet it stores its provisions in summer
    and gathers its food at harvest.

I lost my other formicariums when moving. So I made another one out of wood to see how it goes.

Did only 1 side so far and it took forever.

This looks so good. What did you use to carve out the chambers?
