It's an integrated system for housing purple martins. Includes heavy-duty 2-inch-square aluminum pole assembly, 4-part pulley system for easy raising and lowering, and 12 SuperGourds.Four-part pulley lanyard system makes gourd raising easy.
Also includes:
12 stainless steel arms, to hold 12 gourds
Top perch
Ground stake (that the pole fits in to)
The system for raising and lowering is easy. The gourd rack slides smoothly up and down pole on nylon glide rope.
Gourds slip on and off quickly and easily, and anchor with stainless steel spring clips. No more hanging wires to twist and untwist! Height of installed system is 14' above ground.
Will work with any kind of gourd, but we recommend the SuperGourds, because they are big enough to offer some protection from predators, and they are easy to maintain. (No painting required, ever!)
If the SuperGourds are purchased separately they must have hanging holes in neck enlarged to 13/32" or 7/16" by customer. If purchased with the Deluxe Gourd Rack, the holes are already enlarged to fit.
System does not include optional Pole Guard shown in photo, but that can be purchased separately.
