YOU'RE MAKING a...Bird feeder | |
|---|---|
| Our feathered friends need looking after especially near winter. Build a table, hanger or something else unique to allow birds to swoop in and eat. Bonus if safety from predators is considered. Even more of a bonus is if the food is kept away from the weather and slowly released as it is eaten. |
OUT OF...Hybrid (Easy) | |
|---|---|
| Excluding any fixings, you can choose any two from the following list: resin, wood, plastic, concrete, fabric, leather, metal, rope, rubber, foam, glass, bricks, duct tape |
USING...Hammer and nails | |
|---|---|
| Final fix must be hammer and nails, and nothing else, no glue, not even tape. You can still cut things down to size and measurement and marking tools don't count either. |

Further info
Most of these project ideas and options have been selected to be as accessible as possible to a wide range of people. They should be considered as starting points for your own ideas and plans to be developed from and are intentionally ‘open’ so that different makers will create different designs whilst overcoming the challenges of the material and tool restrictions that have been chosen for them.
Depending on the limitations of someone’s workshop the generated project might not always be suitable, so if that happens you can just generate another.
The above doesn’t limit you from sanding, adding polish or finishes, and above all else, make sure that however you’re working on a project that you do so safely and with supervision or help where necessary.
Top thing to remember, have fun with this. Be inventive, share the challenges you faced and also let everyone see what you created.
