Camera View Comparison

Final Build Comparison

With no camera/chimney, the basic build is very quaint.
The Blink Outdoor 4 camera has a smaller footprint and therefore a smaller chimney
The Dzees has a larger camera footprint and so the chimney is substaintial.
The solar panel can be mounted anywhere nearby (about 6ft of cable) that benefits from ample sunlight.

Setup and Installation

 

Since I did my build in PLA, after I had everything ready for final mounting, I removed the camera and gave it all a couple coats of UV-resistant clear coat. Not sure on how helpful it will be but time will tell. Perhaps consider printing in PETG or even better, ASA, for proper outdoor use.

 

After printing all the parts for a cabin & roof of your choice the setup is as simple as I could think to make it. You likely could figure it out without even looking at these pictures.

 

In order, the following pics are a general assembly of a cabin, then a roof/camera setup, and then the outside mounting.

Assemble your cabin build by gluing the bird hole rim, door and windows into position.
For all 3 roofs you just drop the roof into place on the cabin. Then insert the beam to hold the roof in position.
At the rear, slide the locking tab over the beam.
A roof & a camera box
Both Dzees and Amazon camera boxes are installed the same way. Glue them into position with super glue and/or hot glue.

For the Amazon and Dzees non solar cameras just drop them into position in their boxes and skip the next two photos.

Dzees solar variant only; the cable must be installed after the camera is in position. It takes a bit of effort to wiggle the cable end into position, but it is doable.
Dzees solar variant only; simply run the cable out of the cabin using the left rear ventilation hole under the roof.
Add the camera box cover (chimney cap).
I predrilled the holes a bit on the chimney and used 2x #6 12mm flathead screws to secure the cap.
A wall mount plate; ensure whatever screws you use sit relatively flush.
I also chose to put a piece of wood on my tree first to give the mounting plate a level distribution surface
You can see the rear dovetail joints here. Just slide these into the wall mount plate and you're done.

 

The 1" pole and 4x4 post mount options are not shown here as I did not use them. I did test print them and they seem fine. The setup process should be apparent and the cabin is mounted on top of the mounting plates. Would recommend you pre-drill the holes in the plastic to match whatever screws you use.

Replying to @C8Doc :
I scaled the white ring up to the size I wanted and marked the cabin.. The actual hole in cabin was done with a dremel tool. Just go slow and it works great. I had a bird start moving in within days.

You could scale the ring up along the x & y axis to whatever size you need. Then right click the cabin, add negative part, cylinder. Just scale the cylinder then move it to the right spot.

I have printed several of the houses! A very beautiful birdhouse with one star deduction. Very easy to print, excellent quality! The neighbor is also envious! However, I'm deducting a star because the white ring where the bird flies in is a little too large. All houses tear after inserting the ring, in the middle between two “beams,” due to excessive tension. The ring should be minimally smaller in diameter.

I love the design, great job on this. Very tempted to print this! Is there any chance at all this roof variant (Dzees) will accommodate the Birdfy cameras? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CR1LYY9L/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&;psc=1

Do you have one? What are the dimensions of the camera body and the lens? That antenna looks like it could be a show stopper though.
