DIY Wine Bottle Bird Feeder
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 лис 2024
- Welcome back to another episode of Withjack Workshops! Today I'm going to be showing you how to make a gravity fed self-filling bird feeder from an empty wine bottle. For this you will just need about 4 feet of pressure treated 1x6 deck boards, an empty wine bottle, and a free weekend.
Here's the link for the glass cutter I used: goo.gl/jlQ9ZT
It's placed in a small jig I made for scoring bottles. It's effective about 75% of the time, other times the bottle slips or the score isn't perfect and the glass doesn't part well. They are easy to make, just take your time and watch for sharp glass pieces! After you score the glass, place it under cold water, and then hit it with boiling water. Do this back and forth a few times and the bottle will split along the score line. It sometimes takes a few tries to get right, just keep trying!

I have a problem with the title.It says DIY and never in a million years could I do that.What an artist.Thats amazing to me.
Brilliant easy design and simple to make, also appealing to the eye. Thank you. Natures Homes.
This guy's just showing off all the kit he has!
All I can say is, WOW. Skill, precision and beauty!
thanks!
I don't care about the feeder I want your workshop, cool setup with all the tool to make anything you want
Shut up
Good job on this...dont sweat the comments on your shop.
If they were any type of woodworker; even hobbies they would have these tools...basic stuff.
Great idea...i will practice this one.
Thanks!
GREAT project. I have to say I like the Cardinal at the end. Nice touch, it's good to know the birds will like it.
thank you!

I make wine , my husband does woodwork, we both love birds! win win win! Great video thanks for sharing.
That's awesome!
Great tools to work with your very lucky you know how to operate them and safely. I'm sure it's very rewarding. Great job !!!
Your neighborhood squirrel will LOVE that easy off top. Otherwise, lovely.
A wonder to behold a craftsman at work!
wondeful! you have got all your toys to make that feeder.
Well done , I'm pretty sure is so well done that u not need a fake cardinal, if u hang up outside , in less than 30 min the real birds come to eat in ur beautiful bird feeder, Good work , thanks for share
Going to buy a workshop with all those machines in order to make a bird feeder :D
Interesting to watch, some good simple tricks there!
Jajajajaa me two jajajaja
Fantastic. I would recommend it is placed under roof out of rainwater as moldy seeds are not good for birds....love this project
This would get sold on Amazon like crazy. Beautiful!!!!
This looks like my next project in the garden. Thanks for sharing.
Hello Brett Withjack,
first of all, it's a long time ago i really had to write in english so i might be out of training :)
I just finished my own Birdfeeder made by your Instruction but i changed one thing in order to make it easier to clean the feeding place: Instead of crafting a wooden feeding dish (as in 2:39), i just crafted another wooden "Ring" (like the one in 4:38 for example) and inserted a plastic pot saucer. Another saucer could be used as the "roof" of the bottle. The big advantage is that you can just put that saucer out of the wooden holder an clean it.
Those to saucers were also the only things i had to buy for ~50€cent.
Thanks Marco! Your English is great. Sounds like you made some awesome improvements. I might have to try that out next time I make another one.
@@Bretts_Builds Thanks!
I also uploaded some Pictures of my Version of the Birdfeeder. This might help to clarify what exactly I meant:

Very nice job! You may want to re-think the top on the bottle. The squirrels will take that off. May be a 2-1/2" sewer drain plug? It can be tighten up at the top. Walmart or Ace should have them.
I'm ok with squirrels, they gotta eat too haha
Looks great! Nice job on the wood too.
WD40 is great for getting glue and labels off glass.
110% True craftsman !
I do not have the attention span to carry out on a project long. I used to I used to build intricate 124th scale car models with spark plug wires and everything at 55 I just don't have it anymore.
Мужик --педант. Сколько инструмента применил.Офигеть ,это для кормушки птичкам.
Well impressed with the video I’m just gonna pop out to get a few hundred pounds worth of tools and find a workshop to make this in😂😂
What a hell of equipment this blondy has. I think it would be cheaper for me to just buy the feeder though what a nice job he's very good
Nice project! Another option to filling the hole in the plug is to use that hole to insert a threaded wooden cabinet knob.
Hey thanks Rob, that's an awesome idea. I'm definitely doing that on my next bird feeder.
Love your tools lol 😂 ! So fast and easy !! I need me some tools like this
best diy bird feeder ever
best comment ever
Very Nice
Just a quick simple little project---I call them 5 minute jobs!! Really cute tho- something I could give my son to work on. He loves working with wood.
This is definitely not a DIY but an industry level video! -_-
FANTASTIC work
Very nice project, I am going to build something very similar. One suggstion: One could add a slight overhang to the lid for a bit more protection from the elements. This comes with the disadvantage, that you can't use the cutoff from the holesaw.
very nice complete set of tools
Bald Eagles just love millet, I have them at my feeders all the time!😂
Lol...that’s one happy shiny cardinal !!!
Well done! You are very talented.
gran bel lavoro Brett . . . . .
complimenti e buon natale . . . .
thank you!
AL66 italiano o:
WOW! That's an intense bird feeder!
thank you!
Neat build
Very nice....sound affects cool...no rambling talk....
The squirrels will love it.
Great project. Easy and useful.
God ..... Extreme hardwork....salute....
Cool set up
Wow! DIY? No way, not me, but very cool video. I was thinking more MacGuyver. A wine bottle, a coat hanger and a dish. This is more like Bob Vila! :)))
that was beast mode brudda
Te luciste amigo, quedó hermoso!! Saludos
brilliant idea for self filling... do you think this would work with dog or cat food?
Знатная кормушка получилась. Особенно порадовала демонстрация её применения.)
nice job now I'm working on finishing that bottle of tequila just for this
Nice, that's the best part!
Nice bird feeder thanks for sharing
Thanks!
After the 2 minute mark, you will be needing a band-aid for this project. :P Nice job! A+
what a pretty bird you got there.
Lovely idea, sadly not all of us have a workshop with all those machines to help make one lol However it was great to watch the process
awesome tools for a bird feeder tool
Fácil y con herramientas que cualquier persona tiene en su casa. Genial!
Simple, functional and beautiful work Brett.
Good idea. I Might put a knob handle through drill hole on top instead of filling in with sawdust plug.
Ha ha ha Bob , I only have the pen ,great bird feeder
The sea eagle will be very happy :D
I just happened to stumble on your video and may I say it was just a treat to watch this and be inspired. Great video edits not ever a dull moment. *I have just subscribed.* :-)
Thank you, you made my day!
I was amazed bout how many tools do you have
BEAUTIFUL WORK!
I'd kill to have a workshop with ALL those kool toolz
& of course the know how of using them ALL while keeping ALL my 👐!
Wow great project
Thank you!
What is still missing is a protruding roof as weather protection. That could be the turn of the bottle cap.
Hello une oeuvre d'art !!! I like
Dope! "How majestic"🤣
Nice work
very cool fella nice job
Hello you're really good at wine bottle bird feeder well done. can you favor please? i need to can make this one for school all I need is a list of wood sizes please
wow dude so much materials but it's worthy
Pretty clever way of cutting the bottle
Beautiful work!
thank you!
Great job!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish I could buy the same !
Nice video looks great but I thought pressure treated wood would be no good for the birds (chemicals )
Yess
birds will love you :)
Great project build! Now all you have to do is keep it away from those MFing Squirrels! I'd also suggest finding a more secure way of attaching the wood stopper. Nice job & I'm sure that the Birds will love it........... Steve
thanks! yeah squirrels in my area are fat from all the bird seed haha I'm ok with it though, they're fun to watch when I'm hanging out on the porch
@@Bretts_Builds Coaching the little bandits to pot the top back after they have fished out all they can reach will be a problem :)
Very nice job!
thank you!
Amar valo laglo vary good and nice idea
This a great service to the co owners of this planet earth
Very good video very informative Thank you
Maybe next time can you make a wood cutting list
I have a bird feeder for the window on my channel, how do you like this idea?
وفجأة صرت اعشق النجارة 😍😍😍
some kind of roof would be good, just to keep the bird seed dry when it rains.
That's what the big cork at the end is for ;) thanks for watching!
It just now dawned on me that you probably were talking about the seed that goes into the tray haha very good point! I will definitely add that into my next bird feeder.
Yah, and we need an update to see it in action buddy
But they are they would not get soggy think again
@@Bretts_Builds the point is , does it keep it dry where they are eating it from ? Also lid needs a rebate water will run in from the lid
Superb work
Outstanding
Gorgeous
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 100%
Very good job! Well done,,
Perfectionist
Cool Bird Feeder!
it"s not DIY only a skilled carpenter with the right combination of tools can do it. good job though.
you need the tools, but you don't need a lot of skill to do this.
felicitaciones esta genial el dispencer..me encanto y muy practico..saludos
thank you!
Fantastic!
Your job is very Nice
Great job :-)
very nice
What a great looking bird feeder! Are you going to sell these in your etsy store? I admired the items there that have already sold as well.
No plans just yet but if you'd like one I can certainly make you one! :)
@@Bretts_Builds I'm ready to order 2 from you,immediately!! Please advise!
Belo trabalho , parabéns , gostei do maquinário 😜✌️
U r very much professional great job.1) How do you cut bottle? 2) if I will hang it on wall where the birds seat?
Simple and beautiful!
Good luck with the squirrels!
It's actually for them haha, I don't get too many birds so it's nice to see it not go to waste
