Bird Feeder Broom Hook
Description
I like to put out bird feeders for all the various birds we have around here. However, I found that I needed to bring them in at night or else the raccoons and opossums would destroy the feeders. Since we hang our feeders fairly high up trees, I was struggling to find an easy way of putting the feeders up and bringing them down. Some of the solutions I came up with were pretty entertaining (duct tape, coat hangers, etc), all of which were not very effective. Then it dawned on me that I could easily model and 3D print a solution. This is the second revision of the parts. The first had a hexagonal post for the hook and a corresponding hexagonal hole in the adapter. The tolerances were way off and I figured it would be easier if the hook simply screwed into the adapter. I did this in separate parts in case I ever wanted to make revisions to the hook, I wouldn't need to re-print the adapter. This should print without any supports, however, I did model in a 0.2mm skirt on the adapter to help with bed adhesion.
