Feeder Construction?

[Ufatz]

I have seen several tray feeders with a metal floor, sorta like perforated peg board. Know what I mean? I have a shop and plenty of cedar to make feeders but I can't find a source for that metal foor material. I've been using screen.

Any ideas where to find that stuff?

If you can't find that, get metal hardware cloth from the hardware store. The standard mesh has openings too large to hold in sunflower seed, but they make a smaller mesh that I've used before with good success.
