Easy to assemble with multiple parts (all can be 3d printed). If you'd prefer, you can use a bolt/nut (¼" or 6mm should work, ~35mm long) for the pin at the bottom that holds the base on. Also, you could use a standard aluminum carabiner instead of the 3d printed one. In the photos, the blue version was a slightly smaller version I designed about 2 years ago. It has held up very well in Midwest US sitting out all year long, but I scaled up the design before printing the black one (with a glow in the dark funnel section). The larger version, which should easily fit on a MK3 or Ender, is the version of the files uploaded, but there shouldn't be any issues scaling up/down somewhat. If anyone wants the original Fusion3D or step files, please let me know.
Print Settings
Most of these don't need anything more than 2-3 perimeters and ~15% infill, except maybe the center rod section (I printed with 4 perimeters).
Print Orientation
- Center Rod, Pin, and Carabiner should lay on their side (on a flat edge)
- Funnel section should print inverted (no supports needed)
- Top and base on big flat surface
Assembly
- Slide “center rod” through “funnel”, aligning the holes at the bottom
- Then, slide “base” onto bottom of "funnel", secure with “pin”
- Fill with birdseed
- Put “top” onto “funnel” assembly, then secure with carabiner
- Hang/hook it up and watch out for birds!
Pin/Carabiner Attribution
The pin and carabiner were design afterthoughts, so I grabbed a couple of files from printables and scaled them properly (both licenses require attribution and allow for remixing, but realistically I just scaled them to fit).
