Introduction: Floppy Disk Bird Feeder

By
About: I dunno... I like school unlike a lot of people and love science and mechanics. I remember playing Gizmo's and Gadgets when I was young, and love correcting peoples spelling and grammar on the internet. I also…

Make a bird-feeder using only 3 Floppy Disks, 12 Floppy Disk Labels (Or masking tape), Hot Glue and String.

Sorry this is so simplistic and has such terrible accompanying photos, I will edit it later.

Step 1: What You Need:

~ Three floppy disks

~ Twelve floppy disk labels, or sticky tape (wide)

~ String

~ Hot Glue (Not strictly necessary if you like the look of it with tape. If I had used labels I wouldn't have used it except for attaching the string.).

~ Scissors

Step 2: Stick the Floppies.

Put sticky tape or the disk labels around both edges of the bottom of the disk equally.

Step 3: Preparing the Disk

Pry off the sliding metal bit on top of the disk and then carefully pry it apart on the top 3 sides.
Take the cotton off of the disk surface and then keep it for nesting material as well as the plastic disk in the middle for another project.

Step 4: Cut a Door

Cut a door in one of your disk sides like illustrated in the picture.

Step 5: Put Your Piece Together.

Assemble the bird feeder by taping the walls together or you could choose to glue it.

Step 6: To Use Glue

Untape each section and hot glue the connections to the disks touching it.

Step 7: Attach a String

Just grab some hot glue and glue the string to the top.

Step 8: Pack Your Box

Put the cotton in the feeder from the disks and then maybe a little seed and hang in the garden somewhere.
