Parametric Bird Feeder Tray

thingiverse

I had to grab another food tray for my budgies so the one male in our flock wouldn't prevent his sister from eating. A second food tray might be harder for him to control. Safety Warning: I don't know which plastics are safe for birds, but I suspect ABS would be okay and PLA would be fine, depending on the dyes/pigments used. Use at your own risk. Possible risks include: Chemical residue Off gassing Plastic splinters and shards I'm not a bird or plastic safety expert. Instructions: The openscad source file has many parameters to adjust the fit for the cage. I haven't printed it yet, but may need support material for the perch bar and back. I haven't decided on the orientation yet. To ensure good layer-to-layer bonding, I'll probably use 0.15mm or smaller layers and lots of heat. A light sanding and thorough washing before use is a good idea. For ABS, make sure it has several days to off-gas after printing.
