bugworldShredding at the feeder. (Northern Cardinal)
Gnarly! Did you print this? I’m looking into a bird feeder with a bird bath but choices are slim.
I designed and printed the quarter pipe. I can make the file available on Thingiverse if there is any interest in it. As photographed, it requires a tech deck and 3x M4 bolts with nuts. Fairly simple at assemble!
This is the feeder I have: www.amazon.com/…/B09KGY9Q79/
Thanks for the link! I saw those but I was hoping to get a cohesive unit. Regardless, I would be interested in the file! It looks sick :D
Bird Feeder Quarter Pipe by BugWorld
This is a small quarter pipe that I made to fit around the post of my bird feeder. There are holes on the base and inside of the ramp. These holes are sized for M4 bolts and are spaced to allow you to drop the ramp over the feeder without needing to modify the feeder itself. The bolts in the photos are M4x25. You will need to drill an appropriate sized hole in the skateboard to bolt it to the top of the ramp. Tip: Birds tend to land near the feeder before coming directly to it. They almost always land on a point higher than the food to get a better look. To encourage your pals to tear it up on the skateboard I suggest that you point the feeder at a nearby tree, post, clothes line, etc. That way they will be more likely to approach the feeder from the side that the ramp is on, increasing your chances of seeing some action. PLEASE POST PHOTOS IF YOU MAKE THIS AND GET A BIRD TO LAND ON IT!
