How to Make a Teacup Birdfeeder
Step 1:
Find the center of your saucer and bowl, and mark them using a pen.
Step 2:
Place a small piece of masking tape over the mark. The masking tape will stop the tile drill bit from sliding while drilling into a ceramic surface. Do it for both the saucer and bowl.
Step 3:
Place the saucer on top the wood scrap and drill the hole using the drill bit. Make sure to do it slowly. Do not use the hammer function on your drill. Repeat with the bowl.
Step 4:
Take the eyebolt and attach the nut. Screw it all the way through the top, then add the washer. Place your saucer with the right side down. Add another washer and nut. Secure it in place using pliers.
Step 5:
Put another nut, washer, then the bowl (facing right side up). Do not tighten it yet. Place your next washer and secure with the nut. Now is the time to secure the nut on top of the bowl.
