Bee Watering Float

Give your bees a safe source of clean water with this adapter designed to fit into a standard 5-gallon bucket.

Print three of the sections at 5% infill using ABS or a light-colored PLA to prevent warping in the sunlight.  Adding a layer of absorbent cloth (a shammy works great) makes it more attractive to honeybees.

For the ultimate in maintenance-free beekeeping, add a hose timer to keep your watering bucket full at all times.
