This is a pollinator apparatus designed to be attached to a blood pressure latex pump. (check amazon)
It features a print in place cap with friction clip design.
Usage: Put pollen into the funnel and squeeze pump to eject pollen onto flower stigma.
Measures roughly 10cm x 6.5cm.
I suggest you print the "brim" version as I've placed 3 small pre-placed brims of 0.2mm height to prevent curling on the fragile tube ends. I've included the non-brim version if you so chose to add brims or other additions yourself. I do not suggest you print without brim, though.
NOTE: Print with caution! While all my prints come out great on my Prusa i3 MK3S+, I'm not responsible for failed prints due to your printer's calibration. Depending on your printer's calibration, the hinge may be a bit tight (0.3mm tolerance) and may break the internal hinge when first attempting to move it.
