Cut out a 1/3 section from each of the 4 PVC connectors. These will be the baffles that prevent seed from falling out of the feed holes.

Maybe that didn't come out right....Should they be shortened?

Yes, I did cut the tubes so they are shorter now, and there seems to be plenty of room inside. Apparently, we both used different length of tube...Now just waiting for the birds. Also, I was concerned about the seeds falling out of the feeder when the birds begin eating. Thanks..Tom

I noticed that when the feed tubes are inserted, there isn't very much room for the seed to fall through on the inside of feeder, is this correct or should the connectors be cut in half length wise to leave more room on the inside?
