    I almost suggested that. Even this very simple design - whilst not beautiful - would be very easy to make. And, with the mesh base, what it lacks in aesthetic design is made up by its practicality.

    Just a couple of old bits of wood, with a bit of plum tree branch cut off at an angle, then screwed together from underneath. The table bit, is only to catch the bits that fall off the balls, so the sparrows can eat it and not the rats.
