Well made me a new bird feeder today

Like other posters I don't know the brand and like them I'd just purchase them from a hobby store.

However I have a couple of 'tips' that may be of value.

 

1) Securely clamp the stock.

2) The friction of the sides of the saw rubbing against both the outside and insides of the cut really drag the motor down and build the heat up. When I use a hole saw, as soon as the pilot bit comes through I turn the board over and drill from the other side. This minimizes the friction because the cuts aren't as deep.

3) Because the sawdust has no way to escape it adds difficulty to the cut. I stop often and vacuum out sawdust.

 

Good luck.

I use a hole saw for the hub on my whirligigs, a lot of sanding is involved, also the wood burns easy.

Went down to the shop this morning and decided to snap a quick picture of part of the Bottle tree ranch that seems to have grown up behind the shop.....Every now and then i get the urge to play with a few discarded bottles.....The wife tells me that it can only grow in the back 40 , behind the shop! !
