Squirrel Guard Bird Feeder

2025 Update = SQRLspike8. Newest version 8 is under test now and is an up date to the other files. Squirrels seem do be smarter than I am. I printed this using a brim and with the spikes up so I did not need or use any support. I actually installed it then upside down on the half inch pole of my bird feeder so the spikes would irritate the squirrels when they are trying to climb the pole. ( It seems they can still smile with this orientation). The finished product simply snaps onto a half inch round pole with some effort. I am working on a square one for the square bird feeder poles which I have also. March 2025 update: I just made a second version with wheels as I had one critter that would take a running start and still get up the pole. Amazing creatures. A work in progress of course but I felt I should include my next attempt for you to try also. I did use support for the arm and printed it in PLA+ at .2mm layers. I included all files for you to try.
