Thanks 👍

Thanks for the advice, I did think about boring in from each end but then I didn't want to ruin the look of the pens with having a hole each end. And I didn't want to complicate things unnecessarily with doing glue ups to hide the hole. I also tried just drilling shorter holes and cutting down the ink tube, but I wanted the process of changing ink to be simpler for the end user without any cutting down any ink tubes involved. The lathe tailstock being out of balance was the main issue, but have since researched that boring long thin holes in wood It is actually better to use a single fluted drill bit for better accuracy, it tends to wander less in it's path through the wood. And no worries about commenting before reaching the end of the video, have done it many times myself. New video should be up soon, schedule has been out of whack this month but your be able to see why in the next video. Thanks and good luck with your creations

Thanks, it's easy to overlook the simple builds but often they are what sell the most at markets. I'm aware of concerns of wearing gloves around spinning tools. Everyone makes their own safety risk assesment, but I see paying attention and being aware of the risks is always no.1

Thanks, hope yours turn out amazing. Good luck

Thanks for the tip, I will check some out.

Thanks. I think it's a great project to get the kids involved with painting and decorating. So I'm sure yours will love it

Thanks buddy

Thanks buddy, hope you enjoy yours it's a great machine. I will have a new video coming out on it soon, Changing out the bearings as well as a few upgrades so keep an eye out if your interested

Thanks for the advice, I'll add the option to my list and give things a think over which way I want to go. Will probably do a sharpening video/review in the future once I have it figured out.

Thanks, the roofs are oversized to help protect the bird entrance hole from predators. Harder for a cat to get at them

Thanks, drainage and air ventilation is handled by the loose fit of the parts in the construction method. They are not machined to be a air tight fit and so there are plenty of small natural gaps

I can only apologise that the plans aren't up yet, working hard to teach myself CAD software to produce good quality plans and hopefully visual aids for future videos. Thanks for your support and good luck with the Aussie birds, just don't make the hole too big or you might get a drop bear hiding in there ;)

Thanks for the comment

Zzzzzzz

How so? Looked fine to me.

Thanks a lot 😊

You can see it a bit in first shot of the video. The V shaped prong of the stand screws or nails into the base of the bird house (ensuring the screws/nails don't protrude into the habitation area) with the long back arm screwing into at the top the tree or post your connecting it to. If you live in a windy exposed area you can also use a small chock of wood to pack between the back wall of the house and the mount stand with a screw or nail going through both to add extra strength and ragidity. This should insure that the birdhouse is securely connected to the tree or post you mounting it too while leaving the ability to remove the roof in-between nesting seasons for cleaning. Hope that helps

Thank you kindly buddy, glad you enjoyed

Sorry you felt so, I spend a lot of time leveling the audio the best I can with the setup I have. I code my own subtitles as well though for anyone who has trouble hearing

Glad you enjoyed it

Skew, skew and more skew!!

You can increase efficiency by batching and making multiple per run, and templating out the cuts like the gable and eaves. And it pairs quite nicely with a lower priced version without all the bevelling to show value. I value my time too, and it's why I choose to make these as part of my business. As I do this full time and I would quickly loose any enthusiasm to do this as a job if I just made the low effort stuff people consider maximum profit in woodworking. It sells alongside my other stuff and helps make my work stand out at a crowded market

It does seem time consuming

@@bobketteringham4779 Thanks for your comment, I don't recall mentioning that it's a 5 minute project so not sure where this expectation of it being really quick is coming from. If your referring to profitability drawn from labour time spent then price it accordingly to your local market conditions vs your production line. I intentionally didn't include my pricing as that is drawn from my refinements in my production line and the local markets conditions where I live.

Thanks very much

Thank you very much dude

Thank you very much

Look foreword to seeing your plans thank you very much

Thanks, your the first to ask. But rest assured I'm busy in the background trying to teach myself 3D Cad software to be able to draw up some detailed plans. I will update this post when it's ready

Thanks for the tips, already plenty of videos on my channel with no talking, just wanted to practice and improve my voiceover for future videos

Thankyou
