Thanks! The shingles are inspired by dollhouse builders. The feeder was outside for two winters now and it's holding up just fine. The sandpaper looks like new, I think it will outlive the roof on my house :)
I got to say you do very good work especially when I see what you have to work with. You make very good use of the space you have and the tools you have to use. Keep up the good work. Really nice feeder. Thanks David
+Roo ! I tried replying you directly but it give some error. Thanks for watching this video after a year, it was one of my least popular projects, but I liked it. Finger was hurt prior to this project, on the larger table saw, but not while working but while being stupid. Looking at the video again today I realize it looks like a safety parody, LOL! I only used exterior grade wood glue and the feeder is fine after it's second winter. Glue it's very strong on it's own, but you have to be patient, glue some, clamp, wait, glue some more, like a puzzle. Staples or nails speed up the process but I don't think they add much extra strength.
What a sweet thing to do! Great project you did there!! All I did this winter was to look at the little birds and wonder what on earth they're pecking for instead of taking some real action to help them go through the winter. :(
Hi ..... Very surprised to hear that this video wasn't that popular .... I think it's great. I think the roof idea is really smart and looks good. Can I ask, I'm from the UK and we get wet cold winters. Did you weather seal the sandpaper shingles in any way?
No I did not and it stood outside the last two winters and they were harsh here (Eastern Europe). The shingles show no wear. Only the plywood cracked a little, but overall it still has a few years left in it even without new paint. If I take care of it it will probably last a decade or so.
Thank you Brian! The saw is based on a lathe, like an attachment, so the video won't be very useful for those who don't have this particular kind of lathes. But I plan to make a new, similar miniature saw from scratch, with blade height adjustment, and will make a video of that for sure.
Enrique Lolli-Dyer Thank you! I wanted to make some simple plans, but there wasn't much interest in the video so I thought not a lot of people would want plans anyway, so I ditched that idea.
hi there absolute great projects and top film making too i have just subscribed and watching all your uploads just one small criticism please please for gods sake change the music too much of the same darn thing its ringing in my ears
Mark McRostie you should talk during the video telling us what you were doing some of us cannot see very well. Please include details, dimensions, etc. thank you
Hard to say, snow melted about the same time I finished it, so the birds had options :) I've seen some using it, especially in the morning, but not as many as I would've expected.
Don't stop here! Try to invest and buy at least some semiprofessional tools. It would be a shame not to invest in your talents. Congratulations, nice feeder!
Multumesc Eugen! I buy tools all the time, way too many if you ask my wife! But most of them are at least 50 years old, so they need some refurbishing before they can be of any use. Main problem is I don't have the space to put them in also I don't have the time to repair them properly. As I grow this channel I'll probably put more time into the workshop. Speaking of talent, I really like your baby bed, you should try to make videos of your future projects. It's a shame that, given our tradition in woodworking, we don't have too many woodworkers on youtube.
Love it, looks great and I am sure the birds will love it too :)
The shingles were ingenious. Hopefully the emery will last through a season or two. It's a Fine feeder IMHO! Thanks, ~PJ

I wanna see it in action ! I'm sure birds love it.
Not sure if a clever joke or not, but I have a video with that exact name: th-cam.com/video/uJ0cO--JirE/w-d-xo.html
The Small Workshop Not a clever joke, unfortunately, just another very not observing viewer ! Thanks for the heads-up though
The ingenuity... I'm impressed, well done.
I got to say you do very good work especially when I see what you have to work with. You make very good use of the space you have and the tools you have to use. Keep up the good work. Really nice feeder. Thanks David

Neat trick with the shingles. I have never seen that before. Good job all round and it looks great. Regards Barry (England)
Just found your channel!
I love this little project, and to see how small your workspace is.
I enjoy seeing small projects :)
What a great video,and proof positive you dod not need top of the line mega machines to turn out top of the line pieces.Love you small saw too
What a sweet thing to do! Great project you did there!! All I did this winter was to look at the little birds and wonder what on earth they're pecking for instead of taking some real action to help them go through the winter. :(
Nice craftmanship and a lot of creativity = 1 more subs !
Love it!
very nice little feeder
Thank you!
very cool
Nice work.
My shop is about 1x bigger so also no room for everything.
But you make very nice do with the space.
dave van maanen Thank you, I plan to reorganize it better to include a table saw station.
nice feeder
Thanks!
Great project well made some sizes with it would help the less artistic among us many thanks.
Great work! This only shows that you don't need big and expensive workshop to create great things. :))) Do the birds use it?
NICE!!! Thanks!
Great Video keep them coming please
Thank you, I'm working on it :)
I like your little table saw, I never seen one of those before, the feeder looks neat! Thanks.

About the mini table saw? Is it a modified Proxxon lathe? Or something else, never seen a proxxon model like that before. Thanks for the video!
It's a homemade attachment for the proxxon lathe. Basically a blade on a shaft between centers. And a table on top.
Nice idea but can we use cardboard instead of wood as it is my school project
awesome
Thanks!
Some info about the Tools used for that bird feeder please, thank you.
I love the saw too! Can we see a video of that as well?

+The Small Workshop That sounds great! Keep up the good work.
Very nice! Do you have the plans?

молодец
NICE HOUSE CAN WE SEE IT BEING USED BY REAL BIRDS ?
He posted a video of that about a month after this one. Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/uJ0cO--JirE/w-d-xo.html
Where do we find birds in malad
hi there absolute great projects and top film making too i have just subscribed and watching all your uploads just one small criticism please please for gods sake change the music too much of the same darn thing its ringing in my ears
Thanks for subbing. I've ditched the music some time ago.
what make of saw is your table saw (its small)
Mark McRostie you should talk during the video telling us what you were doing some of us cannot see very well. Please include details, dimensions, etc. thank you
did birds use it?
Yes, I've uploaded a video with them a month or so later, you can see it on my channel.
awesome!! haven't watched yet, but will!
Did the birds like it?
Hard to say, snow melted about the same time I finished it, so the birds had options :)
I've seen some using it, especially in the morning, but not as many as I would've expected.
Your fingers are way too close to the table saw blade!
Du bist deutsch echt so was in TH-cam eine frechheit
If you have squirrels they will tear it up immediately
We don't have so many as in the states and the feeder has two years already and holding up just fine.
you are lucky, i have many and they tear up my feeders
in a way, you are luckier because you are closer to nature :)

Wish you dropped the music entirely too distracting.
Then just turn off the volume
@@JJ_Jonah good idea. Will do.
YOU SHOULD NARRATE , HARD TO WATCH SOMEONE DO SOMETHING & READ AT THE SAME TIME
