In this procedure we have included an open-source method for a customized operant chamber optimized for long-term miniature microscope (miniscope) recordings.
The miniscope box is designed to function with custom or typical med-associates style accessories (e.g., houselights, levers, etc.).
The majority of parts can be directly purchased which minimizes the need for skilled and time-consuming labor.
We include designs and estimated pricing for a single box but it is recommended to build these in larger batches to efficiently utilize bulk ordering of certain components.
