About this Product
This beautiful hexagon bird feeder tray will add a touch of style to any deck, patio or backyard.
Handcrafted from cedar, sanded to a buttery smooth finish and accented with two shallow v-grooves, the open design will accommodate seed-eating birds of virtually all sizes.
This feeder is 12" across and the feeding area is 1-3/4" deep, capable of holding at least a couple of pounds of your favorite bird seed. The reinforced fiberglass screen on the bottom will allow the rain to drain through, leaving the seed nice a dry. The screen is a tough material that will not rust and is meant to withstand the elements for many, many years.
Being made of cedar, which is naturally bug and rot resistant, this feeder will hold up well in all kinds of weather. It will grey over time, as all woods will do. I do not add any protective finish as I prefer to leave the wood in it's natural state, allowing the customer to decide. If you do decide to add a finish, be sure that it is 100% safe for the birds. I do not have any recommendations at this time.
The hanging wire is braided aluminum with a plastic coating that is capable of holding up to 110 lbs (according to the mfg). Between the seed and however many birds that can manage to sit on the feeder at any given time, that should be plenty strong enough. The eyelets are made of stainless steel so they will not rust.

Meet the Maker
Greetings. Thanks for stopping by. My name is Rob and I am the proprietor of Awl That Wood Crafts.
I've been a tinkerer and maker for many years. I just never thought of it as something I could get in to as a hobby or side business. First, I made an enclosure for our oldest daughter's bearded dragon. That's when it hit me. Next, I built a coffin-shaped book case for our youngest daughter. Next was a farmhouse-style end table. I was hooked.
For Halloween one year, I made some wooden jack o' lanterns with the intention of trying to sell them. Once the word was out, I couldn't make them fast enough. With that success, I started making Christmas crafts. They didn't sell as well as the Jack o' lanterns but it was enough to convince me that I needed to expand on this idea. With that, Awl That Wood Crafts was born.
I started an Etsy shop back in April 2023. My initial list of products were simple items, e.g. bottle openers, candle holders, but then I added a couple of bird feeders and a squirrel feeder. That's what started the ball rolling.
My main focus is bird feeders and squirrel feeders. I am always working on new ideas to keep things fresh and give potential buyers more choices. Come back often to see what's new.
Thank you
