Greenhouse "Project Eden"

🌿Mini Greenhouse (Print-in-Place Ventilation & Integrated Irrigation)

Take your plant hobby to the next level! This mini-greenhouse is designed for easy 3D printing and hassle-free assembly using standard acrylic sheets (e.g., Plexiglas). It is perfect for starting seeds, propagating cuttings, or helping humidity-loving plants thrive on your windowsill. Thanks to its clever design, it features a "print-in-place" ventilation mechanism and an integrated watering system, allowing you to care for your plants with minimal effort. You can choose whether or not to include the integrated light—while not strictly necessary, it certainly looks cool.

Key Features

• Standard Acrylic Sheet: Designed to fit readily available Plexiglas/acrylic panels for maximum transparency and a sleek, clean look. • Print-in-Place Ventilation: Smooth, functional air vent printed as a single piece—no extra hardware required. • Integrated Irrigation System: Easily water your plants without disturbing the climate inside the greenhouse. • Modular & Easy Assembly: Snap/screw-fit parts designed to minimize post-processing and make building it a breeze. • Compact & Functional: Ideal for desk, balcony, or windowsill gardening. • Lettering: The lettering can be incorporated using multicolor printing; for those without multicolor printing, it's also not a problem. Simply remove the lettering data, and the lettering will be omitted in the first few layers and will still be visible (though not as clearly as with multicolor printing). • Insert trays: Various types of insert trays can be used, 4x4 / 2x2 or a combination of both. • Supports: All parts are designed to be printed without supports. • Part orientation: all parts can be printed in the standard orientation. • Component size: All parts fit standard printer sizes; the base and AirVent have been separated, though they are also available as single pieces for those with large-format printers.
