Begin by constructing a primary geometric frame using precision-cut hardwood slats, following the fundamental Bauhaus principles of clean lines and functional simplicity. Ensure the main reservoir is perfectly square to maintain a balanced structural integrity for the central pivot.

Integrate a custom brass pendulum rod beneath the main structure that acts as a physical counterweight for the feeding tray. This mechanical balance allows the tray to tilt slightly under the weight of larger birds, gently limiting seed access.

Apply a weather-resistant matte finish using an eco-friendly exterior oil to preserve the natural wood grain while adhering to the minimalist aesthetic. Avoid ornate hardware in favor of concealed internal joinery to maintain the sleek silhouette.

Finalize the assembly by installing a high-tension cable suspension system that allows the entire unit to hover steadily against the wind. Test the pendulum sensitivity to ensure that the kinetic movement remains smooth and responsive to incoming visitors.
