Geometric Prism Suspended Seed Station

Begin by mitering high-quality cedar slats at specific angles to construct the rigid skeletal frame of the geometric prism. Precision in these miter cuts is essential to ensure that each side sits perfectly flush when the structure is assembled.

Install clear, weather-resistant acrylic panels into the interior grooves of the frame to serve as the seed reservoir walls. These panels should be siliconed at the edges to maintain a moisture-proof seal, keeping the birdseed dry during rainfall.

Fashion a hinged top hatch using a hidden piano hinge to allow for easy access when refilling the seed hopper. Add a decorative brass latch to the front to keep the lid secure against curious squirrels or strong winds.

Finish the wood surfaces with a non-toxic, outdoor-rated tung oil to protect the cedar from UV damage and moisture. Once dry, attach a heavy-duty swivel eye bolt to the apex for a perfectly balanced, rotating suspension from your favorite tree branch.
