Needs aeration holes in the base, otherwise ok.

The birds need air and drain age holes. You made it waterproof but not breathable

Good but can be improved by adding a perch below the entrance hole. On the inside of the front panel, attach a few twigs to allow the chicks easy egress when they start to fledge.

Super random but you an my dad are doppelgangers! You guys look SO alike!

Thanks for the video..don’t forget to site your bird boxes facing north on a wall to avoid full sun and the chicks overheating.

不错

The background music is SOOOO annoying.

I can never find any planks wide enough. Where do you buy them?

Good info, thank you.

Hi, the rapb says you should have a rough surface on the inside front so chicks can climb out.

Great looking bird house .I make them to donate at raffles or fundraisers and wondering what your cost of materials are estimated at I use rough pine 1"x8' and notch the "floor" corners for venting also drill small holes just under roof line. I use old conveyor belt for hinge and do seal ends of wood to make them last longer .thanks for this great video ,very well explained.

Hi my friend Mancave good morning beautiful house for very beautiful bird top with top finish congratulations big hug - another subscriber big hug - TMJ always be counting on me in the rush.

Mi phone. To cool I love how you talk.

Would you leave your kids with him.?

This was a very interesting video thank you from New Zealand

The bottom would be better to be removable for cleaning at the end of the season rather than try and fish the nest out from the top

Holes sizes for anyone ? 25 mm for blue, coal and marsh tits 28 mm for great tits, tree sparrows and pied flycatchers 32 mm for house sparrows and nuthatches 45 mm for starlings. The small box with 100 mm high open front may attract robins or pied wagtails. A wren would need a 140 mm high front panel, while spotted flycatchers prefer a low 60 mm front to the box.

Great video.. looking forward to new videos, this is a good idea and I like the presentation.

Красиво. Удобно будет чистить...

Hey man! I love your table! You'd be an amazing teacher for product design, maybe you could also teach food tech and IT, that'd suit ya!

Since moving to the UK I have learned to do woodwork with my snow gear on ! Your bird boxes look great. I'm just making mine now.

Thanks for the informative and easy to follow video. I am very new to DIY and trying to learn as we work on our house. I'll definitely be watching more. Happy New Year :)

Hello! Like: you care about locking mechanism! Think: a metal corner attached to the roof underneath, which come into one of the wall. A hole in the metal and a wall with a locking rod/nail will keep the roof locked! Or a hook-type locker! Kind of a thing metal plate with a hook on the end...

A "metal plate" around the front entrance hole is an absolute "must" to prevent woodpeckers, squirrels, ect, from enlarging the hole and getting in to the box and taking the eggs or the chicks. Here on TH-cam there are a few horror videos of woodpeckers enlarging the box hole, and eating the small chicks in one afternoon!

OMG ITS ACTUALLY HIM

Good vid please stop silly music ....cant hear you talking

Is that mr painter

What degree angle did you make for the roof 30 or 45?

Nice been putting felt on mine and also slate looks good.

You need a bench hook. Look it up. Easy to make. You'll thank me.

Ok it’s been 3 years. How did the. Bird boxes do?

I think it looks really great! Amazing idea for robins too! There only thing I've noticed was some missing holes in the base (www.rspb.org.uk/fun-and-learning/for-families/family-wild-challenge/activities/build-a-birdbox/) . I read ventilation can be quite important - to prevent bird's babies to overheat. Thank you for this video!

great video especially like the robins house, well done

I made a Bird box out of an old pallet and when I put it up in a tree I had a blue tit nesting with in a few weeks

Like the design and will be using this. Do you think some drainage holes in the bottom would be useful ? 👍

you could drill holes in the base to allow water to drip through and prevent flooding ps did you carefull to use non treated wood which is maybe toxic? God speed anyway oh i now see u used UN treated ok but buying dulux would be fnding the viviseaction and demise of animals btw apparently God speed anyway

What is an RSPB?

The roof felt and hinge is very well done, I had trouble trying to figure this out on mine, thanks for the tips and the spring latch!

I volunteer for the RSPB and I've been making many of these as well as bat boxes and dormice nest boxes. Interesting take on the roofing felt and the spring. I've been recycling old broken pallets from work for mine and to prevent the water running into the box I've used part of an inner tube tacked over the lid to the back forming the hinge. I've then placed a small strip of wood across the top of the inner tube, pinned it into place and sealed with external wood glue. To lock the roof in place I've used a single screw driven down through the lid into the front plate. I've also extended the back down underneath the box so it can be fastened to a surface at the top and the bottom for extra support. The back plate I've cut on my mitre saw at a 30 degree across the top so water drains off. It's also cut at the bottom for decoration. The only thing I don't do is apply any stain - mine are all completely natural. Don't forget a few holes in the bottom for drainage. Don't forget that different sized entrance holes will help choose what breed of bird can use it. I've also used half open front for Robins and Pied Wagtails etc.

Nobody out there will tell you this ... to disguise the fact that its a new box rub a handful of dirt into the wood ... the box will be nicely camouflaged using materials kind to the birds and kind to mother nature.

4:20 they’re called “clout nails”👍

Cute. th-cam.com/video/n82JmTId6L0/w-d-xo.html

Please can you stop the music when you make the videos it is way too loud and very annoying. It is distracting from the commentary. Thanks!

Wobbly bandsaw spoils it....so easy to fix?

Clout Nails ?

Thanks for making this video! Subscribed too.

RSPB boxes have drainage holes and the access doors are usually bottom or side. This is based on an older design maybe?

great food box for magpies

Handy saw tip! 👍

Thank you. I've enjoyed watching this video. My brother is going to help me make some of these for our large garden. I've subscribed so I do hope I can see more of your lovely handiwork. God bless from Northern Ireland.v. Spring 2021
