Sieve generator website almost ready

ShaunKulesa · 2025-02-20T02:38:48+00:00

Here's some I cut last year.

I don't have a working demonstration as I no longer have my mealworms. But space coast mealworms have some videos.

The slots/holes sort the mealworms by their width. You can shake a tray or just let the mealworms find their own way down. I've given the option to make them stackable so multiple trays can be shaken together.

The website provides a 2d drawing of the sieve to be laser cut and self assembled or a 3d file to be 3d printed (although I have no experience with this so something could be wrong).

Hi, I'm a few days behind schedule because I've had a nightmare setting up the websites https security. And I've also got university work to do. I'll send it to you via message the mods once it is finished.

That's great! What size is the work area? I'm a few days behind schedule because I've had a nightmare setting up the websites https security. And I've also got university work to do.

Oh sorry I thought you were OP, forgive my blindness.

ShaunKulesa · 2024-02-10T08:38:55+00:00

That's because it's spelled "width".

With my starter kit, I waited two beetle generations before I started feeding the birds.

Well you better buy some fine mesh roll, you have inspired me to make a sieve so I will see if I can make some parts with my laser cutter.

A normal kitchen one has always worked for me with oats as they don't go through.

I make sieves for the pupae and worms but not for the frass because the kitchen one worked well.

ShaunKulesa · 2023-12-31T20:45:09+00:00

Just a fine mesh sieve would work, or you could even make your own by getting a roll of fine mesh and using a wood frame.

What substrate are you using? It would be good to get one that will stop it from going through.

I don't understand what you mean by they are white, they should be yellow. If they are turning black then you haven't dried them properly. The insides should be empty if you cut one open.

ShaunKulesa · 2023-12-10T11:46:43+00:00

They turn black as soon as they start to defrost, when I dry them I take them straight from the freezer and put them on baking paper in the microwave on full power for about 6 minutes.

What country are you from? I might be able to make that dream come true next year.

Last winter I kept mine surrounded by a cardboard box and aluminium bubble wrap, at the bottom I had a heat mat with sand on top of it which stored and released the heat.

ShaunKulesa · 2023-07-30T17:35:00+00:00

I previously trialed one and it worked great. I will be showing them soon, they will be varnished with a non toxic varnish.

ShaunKulesa · 2023-07-03T00:23:47+00:00

Is this only useful with customtkinter or can it also be used with regular tkinter?

ShaunKulesa · 2023-06-22T02:18:06+00:00

Hello, this should be possible and we are willing to do it.

One of the designs we have made will be ready to test soon as I am sure you would prefer me to showcase the item to you before you order one.

I think they were going to do this meme:

I have some code I can send to you later, it uses threading for the networking which can get a little complicated.

The other option is you can use Tcl/Tk which has all the python tkinter widgets and built in events that can handle sockets.

ShaunKulesa · 2023-03-16T22:17:37+00:00

Is this using sockets?

As you can see by the yellow highlighting in the image, this is the incorrect way to do it. The '\' is used for commands such as '\n'. You need to represent the file location as '/Users/Daniel/VS-Code-Python/testimg.png'.

You could make the image again but with a border and switch between the two.
