Project Information

This is a bird house that was built with a little bit of every left over wood, garden rock and cedar door shims that I had laying around the shop and garage. It is mounted on a piece of pine. It kind of has a Swiss Chalet flavor to it in the decorative truss structure and scallops.

The rock is run of the mill white garden rock and has been epoxied on the sub-straight. It is rather heavy but should with stand any weather that comes its way.

Max, I can't think of any self respecting bird that wouldn't want to live in this cottage… Great Job!

Thanks for sharing!

Loved the birdhouse. I make a few myself and find it is a great way to use up the scraps as it seems I never throw anything out!

Max,
Haven't seen anything posted by you in a while now. 8>( (like your projects) So I thought I would go look over your old projects again and I don't remember seeing this cool home you made. Really like the look of it. Did the birds move in?

Thank you for the compliment. No birds moved in, it has never made it outdoors as yet…...
