Here's a variation of the large platform bird feeder that Pittsburgh sports fans would love. For Christmas one year I built this awesome black and gold bird feeder for my parents who live in Pennsylvania. Like others from that area, my parents are avid Pittsburgh Steelers and Penguins fans so I came up with an idea to really give them something to be proud of. I also grew up in the Pittsburgh area, even though I have roots in Maryland.  I'm still dedicated to the black and gold, though! This was a fun project to build and I'm thinking of building one for myself now! The bird feeder is huge - it's 24" across and over 2 ft. tall. It took me two weeks to build. For the seed tray, I built a hexagon frame made of composite Azek and fitted a piece of Plexiglas to its bottom. Downloadable Woodworking Plans: Gazebo Bird Feeder Pittsburgh Theme
I also built another fly-through bird feeder with the same roof design. I painted it red and white and the colors really stand out. I just need to figure out how to keep the squirrels out of it... If you're interested in building one like this, I have the plans available for download. See my platform feeder page for more information and photos of the original design. The plans include photos at each step!
