Can this be mounted atop a 4x4 wood post?

It would be easier to mount a board on top of the 4x4 first, then mount this bird feeder to the board.

Yes it can. I thouht I would mount a base board first, but the feeder fit perfect on the end of the post

This fencing has sturdy grommets on the top and bottom and could be hooked to the 4x4 posts. It would work without a cross support if the space wasn't to wide (5 feet).

Yes! Unfortunately though, it can't be mounted flush against a wall or post because the angle of the panel off the bracket would hit the wall or post.

The post I used with this was a 4 inch x 4 inch (4 X4) post. I hope my Answer helps.

Yes. The instructions called something like 1.5 feet above the ground and that's what I did. After completion I wished I had gone taller. It's hollow and the taller your 4x4 the more stable your post.

I don't believe so, I have to let you know the mounting bar is horizontal, not vertical and there about 20" apart screw from screw. its very sturdy but I don't see how to set it up on a post. also take account this swivels from side to side

Not exactly. You'd have to cut or file the post down for it to fit. We put them on top of 4" x 4"s and we had to sand/file them in places where the wood wasn't exactly 4" x 4"

They fit on many 4x4 posts. But if your posts are angled at the top there can be a problem. I made some wooden shims to solve it.

I don't know but I would think with the interior wooden 4x4 and the additional modification to add a little height on the mount, we had a good result. Good luck with yours if you decide to choose this post.

Yes it for 4x4 "dimensional lumber". I ended up using monster glue to put them on as I didn't like the idea of having the nails visible. If your using them for fence post you could use nails, but mine are very visible. I'm in New England and they stayed on since July. I'll have to see what the rest of the Winter brings.

A 4x4 would fit in the lower portion of the post but not the upper portion. Even if the upper portion was wide enough the bolts used to secure the mailbox protrude into the interior of the post and would block the 4x4. You will need to remove the post from your current mailbox.

I would think you could. I mounted mine on a copper post. I took a 2x4 and mounted it on the bottom of the feeder lengthwise with screws. Then I mounted a metal flange on to the 2x4 with screws also. I then screwed the flange onto the copper pipe. I'm pretty sure they make metal mounts for wooden posts and you could find them in the hardware store where they keep the decking materials.

Don't think so because it is about 18 inches long. Unless the post is mounted sideways

I wouldn't recommend it, you'd end up with the unit hanging at an odd angle, I suspect, if not the unit then the post, for sure.

It does not come with a mounting bracket. I built mine inside a stone pillar so I did not need one. It would be difficult to mount on a 4x4 post without the bracket.

Seems to be flush, I would think some heavy duty wood screws with epoxy would suffice for mounting to 2x4s

It has to be installed over an existing post secured in the ground. They recomend a 4x4 but I had a 3 inch round aluminum pole set in concrete so I made wooden adapter brackets so the post thought it was going over a 4x4. Pictures available on request.
