The Workshop: Cedar feeder, dry ‘tri’

I finished a large bird feeder recently and as soon as I washed the red paint off the brush a thought came to mind: I should build more of them.


Two cedar feeders are now assembled and, once painted and oiled (w a titch of maple stain) and are dry, will go on display on the porch or in a local shop.

(Feeders - approx. 15 in. tall at peak w four 11 inch supports sitting on base 16 in. long by 9.25 in. wide. Two roof panels are each 18 in. long and 7.5 in. wide.)

Next up: I need to add roofs to two more tri-plexes so that they’ll be ready for the spring rains. Winter has just arrived, so I have lots of time... I think.
