Create an Expandable Bird House with Four Printed Parts Construct a scalable birdcage using four 3D printed parts and dollar store wooden skewers, featuring a swinging door. Designed for narrow shelf decoration, it can be scaled up by adding more cross beams in any direction, forming back rooms, mazes, expansions, or floors. The key to this project lies in designing personalized decorations; examples include front steps, finials, half columns, windows with frames, and roof peak decorations. Tips for assembly include using acetone to glue weld parts, aligning angles at 90 degrees, and utilizing an alignment tray. Suggestions for better versions of this basic design involve adding a cleaning open bottom tray, cross-over copper wires on the roof instead of long wood beams, and LED lighting inside. Parts list includes Quarter_arc (12), Half_arcs(6), Stanchion (12), and Cross_beam (32). Print out the parts, buy bamboo staves from a dollar store, assemble, glue up, and enjoy decorating your new bird house!
