The first remix i did of this model had printed sitting-bars for the birds. Apparently, despite the fact they made a sturdy impression on me, they were torn of within days by other animals trying to steal the bird seeds.

After a bit of thinking I decided to make the sitting bars from another material. I designed a new bottom underneath the original feeder with 4 10mm holes. I used wooden rods for ~3€ per Meter and cut 12.5cm pieces. There are prepared holes to secure the rods with 3mm screws.

I finished the sitting bars/rods with 3mm rope, but that is up to you.

Furthermore I added a cone into the middle of the feeder, so that the bird seeds will automatically slide towards the edge.

The lid has two little knobs that lets them screw in a little. Maybe I am designing a proper threaded insert for v3, I'm still in the progress of improving my CAD skills.

I suggest to print with temperature resistant PETG for outdoor use. Also I suggest to print with support underneath the bottom. 

The model is almost 25cm in height, so it can be printed on a Bambulab P1S.
