You could always put a smaller circle of ply in the bottom of the pot to
take the bolt that holds the outer disc, and screw the pot to the wall,
tree or what ever through the base plate and through the centre hole in
the base of the pot.


and where will Bill and Ben live?

I thought I had made it clear, small disc in the bottom of the pot that
has the bolt fitted through it, this plate and the pot are fixed to the
tree or what ever wit a screw through the centre hole in the pot.
The bolt will reach right up the length of the pot and through a hole on
the Larger disc that just fits inside the top of the pot, as the pot
tapers the tightening of the bolt with a wing nut or something holds it
firmly in place, Tweety pie then has the space between the base and the
top disc to set up home.
Is that clear now?
