If you have ever had any sort of pet, you know at least two things;

1.) they can be hard on their toys.

and

2.) Toys can be expensive.

I got tired of forking out ~$10 every time my Alex or Meyers chewed through their swing or perch or whatever.

so I have been designing a group of bird swings that is relatively (>.> looking at my alexandrine) durable, and cheap!

The little birdies seem to really like these guys they are a little cheaper to produce than the triangles, but my birds seem to like the triangles better. Your mileage may vary.

at this point i have printed 50+ of these things now, and even a breeder friend uses them for their birdies. so i decided to share them with the rest of the world!

these hoop/circular swings come in 3 sizes 4in, 5in, and 6in.

i have the plates setup to do all 3 on one, or each size individually.

they come in standard SAE ¼ coarse thread modeled into the piece, so all you have to do is source the attaching bolt.

i typically use eyelets on the top, but you probably could use a threaded rod with washers and a wingnut to attach it horizontally to the side of the cage.

I always print these in PETG, and apparently you can wash them in the dishwasher.

the profile i have here is for the .4mm nozzle.

Note: Make sure you use glue, and keep the bed at one temp the whole print.

Also, the textured pei plate works great

anyways Enjoy!
