looks good mate, you can use some of the dimmer switches from cars for a speed controler , or an old ford heater coil, situated under the bonnet at the back by the heater fan in a small metal cage.

Just one question the bird holders are they straight with the arms or angled with the way it rotates ?

Not sure im looking at it right or me glasses are wonky :)

ahh me glasses are ok then :)

does putting the crows on sideways not make it difficult for the wing spread?

im guessing the arms are not metal rod so they can be bent to accomodate the bird cradle in the normal fashion.

but if it works fine that way nice one.

find some dull mat paint for it you may find that'll shine too much in sun and from a distance will put off more than than it will draw
