Squirrel Cover for Bird Feeder

thingiverse

Every year I engage in an epic struggle against the tree rats, and every year they emerge victorious! My poor apricots are ruthlessly decimated and my bird feeders are mercilessly plundered. I created this large diameter cover - printed in 6 x 60 degree segments - fully expecting to have crafted a makeshift umbrella to shield my arch-nemesis from the rain while they feast unabated. I designed this with strategically placed break-off tabs to provide extra support during printing. As a result, you won't need to rely on a brim or supports, but your print may appear slightly stringy underneath.
