Reserved for updates

3-9-22 - A second round of prototype units is planned shortly to validate a few small changes. Holes under the bumpons have been added to make coating more accessible and inner walls have been adjusted slightly to allow more room for placing/removing artisans.

Gonna buy more artisans to justify buying more roosts to justify buying more artisans...

I like it!  What’s the motivation for high profile?  Also maybe add an acrylic lid they can be laser cut and with it being so deep it would complete it i think.

Also while being pretty different design wise the inspiration/name seems derivative of the nrd nest. It wouldn’t be so bad if you didn’t have that word in your ic. I think your idea is unique but some may feel odd about the similar name

Appreciate the feedback thank you!

This was actually designed and prototyped before I had heard of or even seen a picture of the nrd nest. In fact, it was originally called Nest! I chose to change the name out of respect for that design, and felt that Roost fit the theme I was going for quite well.

Hope this clears it up

really like the angle, making the caps look like they are in higher rows as they go up.
looks like it will present the caps better than some i've seen.

nice touch.
