New enclosure and form factor

A project log for Vending Machine for Birds

Simple, inexpensive bird feeder that dispenses peanuts in exchange for dropping stuff in a hole. A vending machine for clever birds.

I've put the electronics in the new enclosure. It works, but is a little louder than before and takes a bit longer to dispense sometimes. I think putting more peanuts on top of the dispenser makes it a little tougher for it to shake them around. I'll work on it.

Anyways, I've added a video with a very brief functional demo here: https://cdn.hackaday.io/files/1847547904515136/nerdfeeder_v2_demo.mp4
