I have seen people houses that didn’t look as nice your birdhouses. Great job.

[cranbrook2]

Thanks Jerry ! I have done about 150 people houses too
I don,t usually build feeders but when I get orders for them then it,s different 🙂

[rylim]

How long have you been working for that birdhouse ?

[cranbrook2]

These feeders took about 2 hours each to build .

I assume the jar screws into the house somehow? Is it just a plastic jar or…?

[cranbrook2]

The jars are plastic and they fit in snug . They work very well and only cost a buck each .

[rylim]

2 hours to build it ? How did you built it ? You are so fast

[cranbrook2]

I use a air nailer Hong , it makes things much faster 🙂
I just built 10 more houses like this .

Thanks again Mark !

[rylim]

John. What kind of air nailer do you use ? To be honest, I have never used a air tool.

I am quite interested to know how did you cut the wood ? Scroll Saw ?

[cranbrook2]

I mainly use Porter Cable nail guns and to the rip the logs I use a tablesaw then mitre saw to cut them to length.

John. Thanks you for the picture and I saw the Bosch Power Box in right there.

The Nailer Gun is 23 Ga ?

[cranbrook2]

I use 16 gauge for most of the nailing and 18 gauge for the small pieces .

[rylim]

I wonder when should I use 23 Ga

23 gauge nails are very small , they don,t even have a head on them . Here are a few birdhouses I built yesterday . I should have them done by the end of the day .

Your birdhouse attracted me and now I am interested to learn how to build the birdhouse.

[cranbrook2]

They are pretty easy to build .All you have to do is rip and bunch of sticks and start slapping them together 🙂
