XXL bird food column
Description
update 24.10.21: After a good 2 years of practical testing, I can say that the design works well. The feed remains usable dry even in heavy rain and a lot of wind, and has no muddy feed. Both the NiceABS as well as the PETG prints have survived the time well and were only cleaned once in between, everything is still intact and nothing broken, despite the fat pigeons, acorns and black pigeons. 4-piece birdseed column for 100mm Plexiglas tube. The plexiglass tube can be freely chosen in height, but the reasonable minimum is ~ 150 mm, my shown tube has 300 mm. The biggest part of the surface is the rain protection with ~ 275x275mm. Shown is a filling with peeled sunflower seeds and peanut crack. There is a 36mm hole on the bottom plate that fits the 25mm bar adapter. The adapter is screwed to the floor with an M6 screw + nut, for the attachment of the rod 2x 5mm drilling are provided, I use there 4.8mm stainless steel screws. The plexiglass tube is also fastened to the floor with 2 M6 screws, the nuts are inserted from inside and below. The floor should be printed with carrier material. The lid should, but not necessarily. Edit 18.10.2019: I have adjusted a version of the floor, in which the hole for screwing on the adapter is missing, this can then be glued. Furthermore, I have incorporated a groove in the bottom group and the lid into which a 2mm gasket fits. At the rain protection I have recesses eingfügt for seals.
