10 | Plexiglas 2-3mm. | 2. | 160 x 234. |
The side walls of the feeders are made according to the drawing, see below. The grooves for the plexiglass cut through the milling machine to a depth of 4 mm. If you do not have a hand mill, then the side panels from the plexiglass can be attached to the end of the side walls (pos. 5) on the screws. In this case, the sizes of the plexiglass will need to increase to 160 x 260 mm.
And it is possible to do without plexiglass at all, only in this case it will be necessary to plunge food for feathered friends every day.
All these parts can be cut from a 20 cm wide board. And a long 200 cm.
All parts between themselves are connected using self-samples. You can use wooden wickers and glue.
Do not forget to carefully sew all corners of details.
In the side of the post. 8, along the edges, drill holes with a diameter of 10 mm. A round plank is inserted into this hole, which will serve as a rig for birds.
Separately, the right half of the roof and the horse in one is intended. The ridge in this case will serve as an edge of stiffness at the same time giving our feeder an elegant look.
The left half of the roof is attached to the side walls tightly.
Connection of the left side of the roof and right occurs with the help of furniture loops (piano loop).
The feeder for birds is ready. It remains only to paint paint to protect the tree from atmospheric influence.
After installing the feeders, open the lid and fall asleep food. Because of the slit 10 mm. Between the bottom and plexiglass, the feed will be quietly saturated. And as the birds will peck him, the contents of the feeder will gradually decrease. Such a feeder just once to fill and eat food for birds for a couple of weeks. And you will always see if there is food in the feeder or not.
Such a feeder is easy to remake and in the summer to use as a nest. To do this, it is enough to pinch the side walls (so that they are not transparent), and cut the pilots in the side wall.
