That is THE BEST LOOKING bird feeder I have seen on youtube! It so neat and beautifully made. Your wild is so clean and your idea was so well thought out. I like your design! The only thing I would want added would be a pole to the bottom. I definitely would not want it hanging from something. If you think that problem through as to how to have a pole assembly with a squirel deterrent I would like to see the video.
I love this bird feeder, Eric. Somehow, I lost touch with you for a while. I'm glad to see you again. I have subscribed to your channel. Thanks for this video.
I agree that a flat roof would have been like totally lame dude! :) Great video. I like the design elements. I think my daughter and I will make this for her grandmother for mothers day.
Welp - guess I now know what I'm going to do with the wood in my scrap bin, that I've been staring at for several days! LOL Yours came out very well, hopefully mine will, too!
As another that builds bird feeders, nesting boxes, roosting boxes, bat boxes, suet feeders, etc. (all to National Audobon Society Specifications), may I suggest adjusting your roof angle. Make the angle higher in the rear than the front with an over hang that includes the feeding station(s). It sheildes the birds while feeding during rain and/or snow fall. It also provides more protection from the seed getting wet and molding. Nobody, not even the birds, wants to be provided 'damp, moldy food'. It can harm them unless there is a true regiment of 'cleaning the feeder'. Just this woodworker's input. I have been making bird houses, feeders, roosting boxes for a long time under Audobon Specifications. You are on the right track. Just think more as the birds you're feeding and, their conditions.
I like that design. While seing that you added slope inside to make seed sliding to the front, I figured out that you actualy gave that cavity behind the seeds chamber. What about an idea that you drill a hole on the back wall and use that cavity as a bird house, or even two of them, if you separate them with vertical triangular wall...
If it were a nest in that cavity, the birds poop and pee and moisture would probably affect the wood and eventually the seeds on the other side of their nest/wall.
Eric, Your feeder looks nice. I regularly clean my feeders every two weeks to prevent infections that cause diseases. Your feeder is very large unless it’s emptied really fast could harm the birds. Thank you ☺️
that's a good idea. I will build a few similar to that for all my cages so when I'm on a week vacation somewhere, my bird will have food for the week. now the only things in worry about going away that long is their water supply. how to keep it clean for them. birds tends to dirty up their water quick.
Nice little project. Any suggestions for an electric nail gun for these types of projects. Looked at many brad nailers, but any suggestions for specific make and model. Can't run a compressor in my basement.
hi everyone ,if anyone else trying to find out building an aviary try Panlarko Expert Aviary Planner ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my cousin got amazing success with it.
I see you use Ryobi, would you reccommend that for hobby use, and even for bigger projects? I’ve recently started my apprenticeship to become a carpenter. We use Dewalt at work and my partner has a lot of Milwaukee tools. But it seems Ryobi is cheaper so I was thinking of going for that for myself.
Great video! I was wondering what kind of table saw you are using with the miter gauge exactly? There are so many choices and wanted to know which one you recommend. Thank you :)
That is a simple yet really functional and attractive feeder.Will make a couple of them. One question,When I build mine I always have a mesh bottom so the snow and rain drains away from the feed.I don't know where you live so it may not be a problem for you. Just found your channel and have subscribed as it looks interesting
Might need some small drainage holes in the feed box. Also you have a small area behind the ramp you could make into a bird house if you drilled out a large hole.
Nice job! Cedar might be a good choice for wood.They have privacy fence boards at the box stores reasonably priced.Not 3/4 thick ,a little thinner though.Oh and i have a project idea for you.Vintage wood egg crates are really cool,image search for them,they are just slats of wood stacked up to make a crate.But the nifty part is the top.There is a real simple way the top stay secure and it really works good.I got a original and i couldnt figure out how to get the top off for the life of me! lol i finally figured it out.There might be a vid on here so you could see how the top works.Back yard chicken are a big thing now and i bet you could sell some easy.You might find a source for the cardboard dividers that go inside. Edit...I dont see a vid on here how the top works,if you think your serious about making one i can make a video for you showing how the top works and is constructed,just let me know
Actually was serious ;) We so rarely get to see the All-American mocking jay and clown-faced aracuan over here.. So since this is All-American seeds, perhaps there'd be a chance.
03:36 ..but ..but .. *Eric* - this price sticker there comes off, when it's all glued together. Right? 06:33 *No* glue - brad nail overkill instead, but *okay* the sticker is finally *off* . Man, I'm lucky now. Good job, *Eric* .
eric, that stinks about the basket. good stuff on getting something done in its place for ur viewers -hey,,u should put a few coats of spar urethane on the outter lid and sides. i do that to all my houses and feeders and doesnt effect anything. .just a suggestion for longer feeder life.
Ryan rohr okay. My uncle works at a cabinet, and drawer making place for kitchens and bathrooms, and so he gives us his scraps. It's usually cherry and maple, sometimes oak or walnut. Can you use oak or walnut?
It is no good to using!.First:roof must be broder against a rain, roof must be locking(wind can open it).Grain can not be mixt, beacuse birds are liking to choose, and throw out worse grain.(will be at once very dirty around).From this reason would be better to make bottom container for grain -double. It give much cleaner around.It would be nicer if proportion side to side is 0.62 (gold rate,proportion).Sorry for mistakes.
Great job !! Thanks so much! Sorry to interject, but this is a magnificent example of 'white privilege' that is earned by your culture, your family and a desire to do really cool projects. I admire you at your young age and hope you get to many heights of competence and contributions to our society (USA). Jim
Ah yes, only white people can make wood project videos. Got it. I'd like to say that in Asia, there are videos of Asian people doing wood projects. Probably some white guy living there is all mad and upset and complaining that their Asian privilege allows those Asian people to make their wood projects.
@@pershop4950 You inferred incorrectly. I celebrated a young man for his efforts. Please note he is not special needs as many cultures seem to be at this point. Well done young man, keep contributing to the welfare of avians.
Just wanted to tell you I built this bird feeder and the birds love it. Thanks Eric great job!!

If you think that problem through as to how to have a pole assembly with a squirel deterrent I would like to see the video.
I can admire anyone who has that kind of respect for safety on a table saw, good job son.
Good job Eric. I can tell your skills and technique are improving. The birds will be grateful.
Newbie Woodworker here, It took me 5 videos before I found yours! Absolutely enjoy your video and appreciate your safety!
I love this bird feeder, Eric. Somehow, I lost touch with you for a while. I'm glad to see you again. I have subscribed to your channel. Thanks for this video.
Nice job, I'll give it a try thanks
Well done and great vid. Keep up the great work.
Great work , Eric Lindberg!!!
Congratulations!!!
Nice bird feeder Eric,,, we love your channel, Thanks for sharing.
I agree that a flat roof would have been like totally lame dude! :) Great video. I like the design elements. I think my daughter and I will make this for her grandmother for mothers day.
Great job Eric. Darn squirrels will love it.
супер! спасибо за идею! у тебя золотые руки!)))
Great video well done ! Would be nice if you add a clip with birds feeding!
Very well done, young man!
That's amazing! Well done.
I really like it good job
Cool project!
Well done cool projects love your channel keep it up.
Talented!
Great project. Thanks for sharing.

Amei muito bom Parabens👏👏👏👏👏 Love it 👏👏👏👏 congratulations good job
Very nice and perfect project. I can make that.

Great project. Next I'd say you should build a table saw sled.
So good
great and simple
pretty cool !!!!

Nice little project. Any suggestions for an electric nail gun for these types of projects. Looked at many brad nailers, but any suggestions for specific make and model. Can't run a compressor in my basement.
I like this & will build some this spring. I noticed not many people paint feeders or houses, is there any reason not to?
you are really getting the hang of these videos that's another job well done
+Kevin Russom I agree. Great format, intro, material needed, assembly, summary.
hi everyone ,if anyone else trying to find out building an aviary try Panlarko Expert Aviary Planner ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my cousin got amazing success with it.
great video would love for you to publish plans so I didn't have to keep going back and referencing the video for cut lengths and angles!
Write it down on paper while watching the video over and over again to get the measurements.
Eric cool job my friend i like it man very good :)
I see you use Ryobi, would you reccommend that for hobby use, and even for bigger projects?
I’ve recently started my apprenticeship to become a carpenter. We use Dewalt at work and my partner has a lot of Milwaukee tools. But it seems Ryobi is cheaper so I was thinking of going for that for myself.
nice bird feeder bro from nyc
Nice design :) ॐ
Great video! I was wondering what kind of table saw you are using with the miter gauge exactly? There are so many choices and wanted to know which one you recommend. Thank you :)
Where and what kind of plastic is used for the front?
Great vid. What did you use to cut the poly???
Do you sell theses type of feeders ? It's pretty nice !
my first video I've seen on your channel was the azusa mini bike
That is a simple yet really functional and attractive feeder.Will make a couple of them. One question,When I build mine I always have a mesh bottom so the snow and rain drains away from the feed.I don't know where you live so it may not be a problem for you. Just found your channel and have subscribed as it looks interesting
The cockatoos and galahs that come into my yard would have that pulled apart in no time flat LOL. The buggers.
good job just goes to show a video project doesn't need to be a complicated one to be good
your voice is beautiful . Better to be a presenter at one of the satellite channels
What are the dimensions for the bird feeder
nice cat.... err um bird feeder there. a n ice simple job.
Michael Puffenbarger pine is a very poor selection for outdoor projects
+Eric Lindberg oke men
Might need some small drainage holes in the feed box. Also you have a small area behind the ramp you could make into a bird house if you drilled out a large hole.
Nice job. 5 lbs. Lots of seed.
simple easy effective
I like this bird feeder can you please give me the dimensions
Nice job!

Simples & Objetivo.
👏
so, I see you lost the overhang at the back. I was wondering how you would hinge that
I guess you never answer your viewers?
nice cat feeder
Gratidão amigo.
Vry nyc vdo thanks
nice. will there be a followup clip with the users of the feeder? (birds not cat)
Actually was serious ;) We so rarely get to see the All-American mocking jay and clown-faced aracuan over here.. So since this is All-American seeds, perhaps there'd be a chance.
03:36 ..but ..but .. *Eric* - this price sticker there comes off, when it's all glued together. Right?
06:33 *No* glue - brad nail overkill instead, but *okay* the sticker is finally *off* . Man, I'm lucky now. Good job, *Eric* .
Why do you not make it both sided?
eric, that stinks about the basket. good stuff on getting something done in its place for ur viewers -hey,,u should put a few coats of spar urethane on the outter lid and sides. i do that to all my houses and feeders and doesnt effect anything. .just a suggestion for longer feeder life.
***** anytime man!
DAMN IT FEELS GOOD TO BE A GANGSTA
+lilwestkid LOL, i thought I was the only one who made the connection to that cult movie...
oFFICE SPACE.... recognized it immediately lol.
hi , exellent video;)
thumb up
new video on my channel today
have a nice day
Wait so you can't use plywood
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Should have treated wood to make it last longer outdoors.
I wonder if the squirrel s or raccoon s will learn to open the top? Maybe a latch?
With this video it's very easy to make a birdfeeder! Thank you! Checkout my videos! Ive joined you're channel!
Good project but you have no luck lol stuff not showing up stuff breaking lol your jinxed
Cedar is a good safe wood that wont rot
Eric Lindberg is cherry or maple good?
ConnorPlaysMc1324 it won't last as long and is more expensive but it's up to u.
Ryan rohr okay. My uncle works at a cabinet, and drawer making place for kitchens and bathrooms, and so he gives us his scraps. It's usually cherry and maple, sometimes oak or walnut. Can you use oak or walnut?
Ryan rohr I was wondering because we get that wood for free.
Connor Dilworth cherry is expensive
Woodglut is full of amazing tips. It helped me a lot.
I did it with the Woodglut plans.
....squirrels......
So you could have used just 1 board...🤦🏽♂️
It is no good to using!.First:roof must be broder against a rain, roof must be locking(wind can open it).Grain can not be mixt, beacuse birds are liking to choose, and throw out worse grain.(will be at once very dirty around).From this reason would be better to make bottom container for grain -double.
