Insect Watering Trough

As it is getting warmer and warmer and the flower boxes on my balcony with the wildflowers - as well as my ‘insect hotel’ - are well visited by insects, I decided to create a small octagonal insect watering trough.

The trough is available in two sizes, inner diameter 100mm and inner diameter 150mm.

Trough 100
  • Outer diameter: 104.0mm
  • Outer height: 17.0mm
  • Inner diameter: 100.0mm
  • Inner height: 15.0mm
Base 100
  • Outer diameter: 103.1mm
  • Outer height: 6.0mm
  • Inner diameter: 102.1mm
  • Inner height: 5.0mm
Trough 150
  • Outer diameter: 154.0mm
  • Outer height: 17.0mm
  • Inner diameter: 150.0mm
  • Inner height: 15.0mm
Base 150
  • Outer diameter: 153.1mm
  • Outer height: 6.0mm
  • Inner diameter: 152.1mm
  • Inner height: 5.0mm
 

And yes, I like geometric shapes better than round ones. ;)

Fittings

  • Optional 1 to 5 magnetics 10.0mm x 3.0mm.
