This is a modular toy for pets. The main idea behind this project is to keep your pets mentally stimulated, by providing treats in a small tube which they have to bring to the end of the maze to collect their prize.
Right now there is only one base and one top. However, the project is modular, meaning that you can combine multiple bases together, and I will release new top files to create even more complex mazes. These will come out shortly, so come back for new adventures for your pet!
The toy can be used by both dogs, cats, or whatever other animal you own. The pipe is small enough to not allow their tiny little legs to steal the treats without completing the maze.
For more physical pets, the top also has the possibility tom place 2-4 M3 screws to keep it more solid with the base. However, in my experiments this was never needed.
To assemble, just put the Pipe on the base, and then secure the top on it. Put the treats inside the pipe, and watch them play! I printed the base and the top with PLA, while the pipe is printed in PETG for more durability, but I guess you can also go with PLA or even ABS/ASA.
I also include a small video to explain the process better.
The author marked this model as their own original creation.
