Bird Feeder for small birds

prusaprinters

<p>This feeder is developed for small birds, and the staggered design prevents larger birds from landing on it.&nbsp;</p><p>The bottom section, holding the bird food, is attached via a twist-lock mechanism to the lid, allowing for easy refilling. It holds about 600ml/20fl.oz of seeds.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Printing</strong></p><p>The design <strong>does not require any supports</strong>.&nbsp;<br><br><strong>Layer height 0.2mm or 0.3mm</strong> should work fine (if printing the base at 0.3mm, consider printing the topmost section with the attachment parts at 0.2mm for a smoother fit).</p><p>Recommended <strong>infill settings are 10-20%</strong>.&nbsp;</p><p>I would advise to use <strong>PETG</strong> for printing these parts, as it will last longer outdoors than PLA.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The pictured parts were printed with a Prusa i3 MK3S and the appended pre-sliced files. They require around 245g/0.5lbs of PETG and about 12h of total print time.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Video Showcase</strong></p><figure class="media"><oembed url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEmoyqvQkPM"></oembed></figure>
