Have you seen this squirrel-proof bird feeder for sale anywhere?

We have this one that I purchased from someone who made them himself and sold them via his personal web site. He must have gone out of business because I can't find them anywhere.

It deters squirrels because it tips forward when the sq lands on the roof. I've never seen a squirrel outwit this design in decades.

I'll be doing some serious maintenance on it since I can't replace it.

It didn't turn up in any of my searches.
They're selling the business and not taking new orders.
It's a perfect design since it actually works. Thanks!

Hazelnuts. But I like to keep them from the seed feeders.
Ours aren't skinny. There must be a lot of stuff around here that keeps them going. 🤗

Unfortunately they're trying to sell the business and not taking new orders. 😞
