A bird wind turbine for bird deterrence

  • it may help deter birds from eating the new small plants or pecking the seeds from the ground
  • or simply for decoration
  • In the colors I chose, it almost looks like a snowman or a stork
  • the ball bearings may possibly cause noise

Special features

  • the wind turbine incorporates two ball bearings, which I designed to withstand overhead stress
  • the head can rotate in strong winds
  • the hat rotates even in a gentle breeze
  • all threads are right-handed, so nothing comes loose when rotating in the wind

Printing

  • completely with PETG (partly with PETG HF)
  • if the balls are not perfectly round, that shouldn't be a problem

Assembly

  • refer to the images or read the assembly instructions, assembly is very simple
  • not all balls are needed, 2 are spares each

I'm afraid the birds find it rather amusing.
