The file 'Little Bird Feeder Air Temple 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 4.1MB.
This is a small bird feeder for small birds.
Inside is a dispenser that can hold bird seed.
At first I thought that it was to small. Even little sparrows cannot sit on it.
So I was thinking to print this model 150% bigger. But after two days they found a way to pick out the seeds in mid air. After 3 days there were even some sparrows that manage to hold them selfs to the base for a few seconds while eating from it. It's very nice to see the birds in my garden adapt to different situations. I made many constructions, bird houses and feeders in the past, you see. It will never get old to see them find ways to get to the food :-). Also the mice are super funny. What they can do is also very mazing :-)
But If you find this Bird Feeder to small you could print it 150%. Keep in mind that you have to use M6 nuts and treaths instead of M4 when you do this. At 100% this object is about 160mm high.
All parts are printed in PLA except for the “dispenser mid VASE MODE NO BOTTOM.stl”. That one is printed in translucent PET-G. This part is printed using the “spiral outer contour mode” in Cura without a bottom (zero bottom layers). The other parts are printed normal with 20% infill and 4 wall, top & bottom layers with a 0,4mm nozzle. Support material is not needed and the parts are already in the right position to print.
The roof parts are glued and I wanted to do this also with the base parts and the white bottom of the dispenser but didn't :-). The base parts and pillars clicked so good together that it was not needed.
If you do it's much easier to fill it up with new seed dough :-).
what you need to make this thing (printing it in 100% scale):
1X M3x160mm threated rod
2X M3 nut
1X tube of super glue
2X base.stl
1X dispenser top.stl
1X dispenser bottom.stl
