Summary

Wall mount for the Bird Buddy smart bird feeder. Designed to match the dimensions of the official mount sold by Bird Buddy, but a little thicker and with a triangular brace in the middle to keep it from sagging.

I made some adjustments after I printed mine to widen the hole, so these files have not been tested. Let me know if doesn't work.

This probably isn't the strongest design, but I liked the way the official one looked and wanted to see if it would hold up in PETG with minimal extra material and bracing (it does). I do not recommend PLA, but it might work as long as it isn't in direct sun.

You can print EITHER the 2 separate parts (mounting plate and mounting ring) OR the single combined part. If you choose the separate parts as I did, use an M5 bolt and nut to connect them.

You will also need 2 screws to mount to the wall, of course.

Have an idea for improving this? So do I! Scroll down for the source link and have at it. Here's some ideas:

  • Make it thinner (3mm?)
  • Make it narrower
  • Change the mounting ring to a post that fits inside the mount on the BB
