I think my "wattsuns" look fine with just wire ties and not really any special effort. It does sound nice to go in the rail. I can put a pix in here later when I get home if you ask? Not worried about squirrels here but I would like to get some of the metal bird protector (often seen at airports) to keep them from sitting up top and doing their business. Anyone know who has it?
