Idea is to use it on the apiary to keep monitored the hives.
the 24/7 pressure on the sensor need a stronger frame to avoid deformations on the plastic.

Model origin

The author remixed this model.

Differences of the remix compared to the original

A small change to reinforce the contact point between the sensor’s metal head and the printed frame. Only the original upper frame has been modified, the lower one is exactly the same.


I added a recess sized slightly smaller than a 1-cent euro coin, so the coin can be “gently” tapped into place using a piece of wood and a hammer. Once inserted, it should stay firmly in place (though I haven’t extensively tested it yet).

This is my first remix—please bear with me!
