This is a remix of the Fruit Fly Trap by MobileMaker (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:432502.)
I also looked at the existing remix by malebox (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2390733.) I liked that malebox mentioned having tried several and found this design the most successful.
I needed this to solve a problem in my landlord's kitchen. But I didn't have the hardware on hand. I felt the overall design could be reworked for a simple friction fit. That worked out rather well. I was quite pleased.
I was also trying to reduce print time and cut material use. So I thinned down the unnecessarily thick walls. Which was more in keeping with the existing 2mm thickness of the bottom. I also minimized the lid height considerably. I adjusted the height of the base to compensate, so as not to interfere with space for bait (especially if using fruit.)
