This self-filling bird feeder is a fun way to use up some scrap wood. Great project for earning income, or just make them for friends and family!

You could also put a chimney on the top, and fill up the bottle from there, A little idea that came to mind

Thanks for this 'basic product'. How lucky is that, I have all of these things lying around home. Instead of using the CloudBit I used a basic GPS device, called my friend at NASA and had him broadcast the appropriate bird song globally with directions to my auto feeder. Finished this project in 11 minutes.

I came back to watch this since enough paint has come off of the one I made years ago that the plywood roof is starting to peel away. I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed your Micro Jig intros. Pity that sponsorship had to end. Great bird feeder, though -- the birds love this way more than the commercial one that hangs near it.

Steve The bird feeder is nice, I look forward to building it with my daughter. Her name is Adeline, and she is 4 1/2 years old. She loves watching your videos each week with me. It's a ritual that has quickly become almost nightly in our home. This one in particular was enjoyable for us because of the Inside Out, Triple Dent Gum jingle Easter egg. That was really cool. Thank you for helping us bond over such a cool hobby/lifestyle. I look forward to meeting you in Kansas City. I asked her what she wanted to say to you and she said "I like his videos, and I like the colors he paints things" Keep up the great work!

You probably should knot the string used for hanging the feeder. I can see a squirrel getting up there and causing the whole thing to tip to one side, spilling all of the bird seed. Then it would be an automatic squirrel feeder.

You can use littleBits to allow the birds to press a button to let you know when you it's time to fill up the birdfeeder. I guess you'd have to train the birds to do that wouldn't you? Great project Steve. This will be something that my daughter can help me with. Thanks!

There are bottle joiners and you could fill a 2 liter bottle and attach it on top of the bottle. This would allow extended time away, like on a holiday. Birds still get fed while you are away.

Super easy no-mess funnel: Take an identical bottle and it's cap, plus another cap. Cut the bottom off of a bottle, then cut out the center of the two caps, then super glue or hot glue the two together, top to top, so that there are threads on both sides. Now you can thread your funnel onto your opening. I use this with water bottles for meal replacement shakes so I can just grab a bottle of water and put the shake mix in without having a blender bottle.

You can also cut glass bottle by using a cotton string dipped in acetone, wrapped around the glass bottle a couple times and lit on fire, then dipped in cool water. It's obviously more dangerous to do for younger people in the audience, but it works extremely well in my opinion.

Take an old cell phone and train it on the bird feeder. Have the little bits activate the phone to start video recording when the motion sensor is tripped. Now you can see the visitors of the feeder!
