Bird house

I like it. The smaller roof gives it a whimsical look.

Spiffy. I didn’t think the roof looked goofy. But if you say it does, I’ll believe you. ;-) I like it.

-- When you give someone a chance it may well be their last.

I think it looks great. There has really been some innovative uses of the 2×4. This is great!

Well done Andy! I really like it, creative. What finish will you use? Or will you leave it as is?

Looks good! Is for an inside decoration or do you plan on putting it up outside?

-- Only the Shadow knows....................

Nice job. The top looks fine.

Nice work Andy! , It certainly doesn,t look like a 2×4 anymore .

Thanks everyone. Its a gift for our neighbors. My thoughts were that it might fun just to paint it our let the renters do it.

Goofy – that’s a word I must start to use!!

What a tricky project – working out those angles and then actually cutting them to fit accurately – not easy, And what about applying the glue, assembling and cramping up? You wouldn’t want any interruptions at that bit of the game. Very clever indeed! Not what you’d expect from a 2×4.

What bird would you expect to nest in there in Nova Scotia, Relic?

Now that I like…..... nice design, nice use of material. Makes judging tough.

Stewart, we have a lot of finches, and chickadees around here. I’m not sure if they will use it or not, and if not than it will just be a decoration. The angles were not that hard, 360 / # rails = included angle. Divide that by 2 and that is the angle to rip the rails at.

great looking bird house relic and i think the top looks great

very cool…thank you for the picture in stages…I can see the original 2×4…

-- Matt, Napa, CA...fun is beautiful...just trying to have some fun...

Love this. I enjoy making curved things out of flat pieces of wood. This is a fine example. What are you going to do with your birdhouse? Will you leave it natural or oil or what?
