Block Mountain Hideout Decor

Introduce a rugged, architectural element to your terrarium with the Mini Block Mountain Hideout Decor! This sturdy piece features blocky textures and deep crevices, providing multiple hiding spots and climbing surfaces ideal for geckos, spiders, and other small reptiles or invertebrates.

The design is optimized for simple printing, though it may require minimal supports beneath certain overhangs, depending on your printer calibration. Suitable for both Resin (SLA) for sharp detail and Filament (FDM) for structural durability, this functional decor requires no assembly or painting.

⚙️ Recommended Print Settings

This structural print is designed for a specific vertical orientation for the best surface texture and layer adhesion. No sealing or hollowing is required.

FDM/Filament Settings (Recommended for Structure & Size)

Material: PETG or ABS/ASA is recommended for high-humidity vivarium environments.
Layer Height: 0.2 mm.
Infill Density: 10-15%.
Wall/Perimeter Count: 3.
Orientation (CRITICAL): Print the model flat on its base for maximum stability. Minimal supports may be required beneath small overhangs, depending on your cooling performance.

SLA/Resin Settings (Recommended for Detail)

Material: Standard UV Resin (Grey or Sandstone color).
Layer Height: 0.05 mm or finer.
Orientation (CRITICAL): Print flat on its base. Minimal support may be required depending on the specific model orientation and any fine details.
Preparation: No hollowing or drainage holes needed.

Important: Always thoroughly clean your final print before placing it in a viarium. Avoid using metal-filled or abrasive filaments. For long-term use, ensure your chosen material is chemically stable in water.

Assembly & Installation

🛠️ Preparation & Post-Processing Steps

This simple print requires no assembly, only cleaning for safety.

Slicer Preparation

Hollowing: Not required. Print solid or with low infill.
Supports: Not required. The design is optimized for support-free printing.
Assembly: No glue or assembly required. This prints as a single, complete piece.

Cleaning (CRITICAL)

Before introducing the hideout to your terrarium, wash it thoroughly with hot, non-soapy water. This removes any release agents (Resin) or printing oils/dust (FDM) that could harm the inhabitants. A final thorough rinse is mandatory.

📦 Required External Tools

None. This is a 100% 3D printed, single-piece accessory.
