Materials:

  • 64oz Snapple bottle
  • Half of a Prusament spool
  • String or rope
  • Hot melt glue

Instructions:

  • Cut a hole in the center of the Snapple bottle cap.
  • Press the modified cap into the printed part. This will serve as the feeder's base.
  • Attach the flange of the Prusament spool to the printed part, securing them with glue. 
  • Drill a small hole at the bottom of the Snapple bottle.
  • Thread a piece of string or rope through the hole, making a knot inside the bottle to secure it. Leave a loop on the exterior side for hanging.
  • Use hot melt glue to seal the hole around the string on the bottle's bottom. This ensures the seeds remain dry.
